Overview
About Me
I am a conceptual artist/designer who is interested in connection, communication and finding common ground. I love long-term travel and meeting new people, learning about different cultures and experiencing life as an adventure.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I will be traveling with a project soon and I am looking to meet open people from diverse cultures and backgrounds - people who are open to seeing and sharing what unites us as humans.
Interests
I love developing art projects around complex concepts. Like, taking a theme and finding a fun and non-threatening way to invite people to interact with it in a public forum that is playful, fun and engaging.

Music, Movies, and Books
Bladerunner will always be one of my favorite films. There is something about Roy Batty's exit line about his memories being like "tears in rain" that so poignantly poetic and true.
Books? Who is to say, My reading is all over the place from Dharma books to David Hawkins to Ursula K. Le Guin.
Music, like my reading I enjoy many different genres. It depends on the mood. But I do like to sing and dance.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I was diagnosed with cancer in 2016 and cleared it from my body without using the conventional therapies of Chemo, radiation or surgery. Go body!
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach my approach to enjoying life without placing too many demands upon it. I am also a good organizer and project manager and helper. I am a creative thinker and can usually see and understand the big picture without losing the details.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share stories, experiences and my expertise. I am helpful, creative and intuitive. And, I love to listen, share and find solutions and common ground through interaction and our shared human expereince.
