CURRENT MISSION

Learn, Love, Adventure! Change the world, one smile at a time :)

ABOUT ME

Spontaneous fun free spirit and independent thinker. I celebrate each day, living in the present and loving freely, limitlessly and unconditionally. I seek new experiences to learn and grow from. I engage in activities which explore the limitlessness of my Being! I laugh smile and giggle a lot. I enjoy wordplay and puns, and the best kind of humor comes naturally and spontaneously - When one conjures a clever and witty comment on the spot! I enjoy philosophical discussions as much as conversations about poop.
I give freely and unconditionally by hosting couchsurfers/travelers/people in need, helping friends move, living in a way that is environmentally and socially conscious, doing volunteer work to make the world a better place!
Today, I will create the life I want to live, the me I want to be!
I travel to experience cultures and communities as an integrated member. This is why I love couchsurfing - what better way to become an instant member of a community?!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The house in Minneapolis I share with two girlfriends - The Goddess House - is open to transients, travelers, and people in need of a leg up. I am a very fortunate person and seize every opportunity to share my blessings! Sharing my home with 4-7 others has been a great practice in community, communication, tolerance and unconditional love.
I have couchsurfed extensively in my travels, and I'm planning more surfing via CS.org.

Interests

I love dancing to music. I love free-form dancing at shows and I'm also a student of hoop dance, aerial dance and belly dance.
