I'm currently doing an art residency at a place called Snaggy Mountain in Burnsville, NC.

My current goals are to take good care of my body, mind, and consciousness; to help others when I can, to understand nature and her patterns; to plant seeds, and to live my life in an artful manner.

I think it's important to be grateful. I try to appreciate the beauty, the kindness, and love in this world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people while going place to place. This is a much more interesting and affordable way of getting around. I love to get to know and learn from other humans that I wouldn't of had if it weren't for couchsurfing.
