I’m a young chronically ill person who occasionally travels & loves to meet new people. Writer, performing poet/artist, resident pun-groaner. I love a quiet night in to rest my lungs & collect stories for who knows what. My roomie & I are all about equity, accessibility, & community care. We have a medium sized dog who is cuddly if she loves you, grumbly if she doesn’t, but is chill regardless, I don’t cook but I’ll wash all your dishes if you’ll let me!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I’m generally happier staying with someone who knows the city, rather than all on my own in a hotel. Some of the coolest people I know I’ve met in hostels. Seems Couchsurfing is a natural divergence from that.

音乐、电影和书籍

I’ve got an eclectic taste in all media I consume. All time fav musician: Laura Jane Grace. Instrumental is for writing, lyrics are for bus rides. Show: Over the Garden Wall; if you haven’t watched it, it’s 2.5hrs well-spent (it’s my favourite & only Halloween tradition). Movie: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I love a lot of them but I can’t think of any right now. Oh, The Tigger Movie. Books: all of my friends’ chapbooks, so many zines, AC Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes, Maggie Stiefvater’s The Raven Cycle, all of Terry Pratchett’s work, ditto on Gaiman.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Survived to 21, died 5 times but it hasn’t stuck yet! A more socially accepted brag is I’ve opened for the radical The Body Is Not An Apology during Vancouver’s poetry festival, Verses Festival of Words.

教，学，和分享

I can talk your ear off about disability culture & history, access movements past & present, punk music history & evolution, the intricate complexities of the human body... I love to learn from passionate people, I never get tired of stories, generally I enjoy a cup of tea & some good long chats (or quiet, I promise I don’t have to talk).
