CURRENT MISSION

To make a living working creatively with my hands and travel lots!

ABOUT ME

I am a single mom who lives with my daughter and boyfriend in the quirky southern town of Athens, GA. I like small-ish town life but have to get out into the world on a regular basis. I enjoy going to shows, networking with other artists, creating and making, eating well and living on the cheap.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in treating people fairly, being upfront and not playing games. I don't care too much about labels or categories, as long as you're yourself and let me be myself, I'm cool. So, I guess live and let live sums it up. I'm easygoing, but also I care a lot about justice.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted several people, individually and at once, and have had really positive experiences for the most part. I have recently moved into a much larger house and can accommodate guests better, so let me know if you need a place to stay!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My couch surfing experience is moderate, usually with friends of friends. I know how to be a polite house guest. I don't mind cleaning and cooking. I respect boundaries and think people are mostly decent.

Interests

I am mostly into music and fashion and philosophy. I enjoy lively intellectual discussion. I am pretty open-minded and like down to earth people who can relax and be themselves. I am creative and drawn to all sorts of artistic pursuits and people--I like to learn. I like mischief sometimes.
