What comes to mind and heart right now —
Nature has got the answers, and I'm listening more deeply these days.
I believe in love with all I've got, and I make a lot of noise for its power.
Hiking is definitely one my favorite things to do. Walking, too. Dancing, three.
I love meeting and hanging out with open-hearted people, and no matter how great and easy the hanging out is, I'll need time on my own afterwards to recharge.
The desert started beckoning me about two years ago, and I'm finally making time for its peace and majesty.
Instead of waiting to have fun, it helps to make fun instead.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I left Detroit at the end of June 2020 to hit the road to who knows where for who knows how long. It feels good to be free like this, to have my car and an open heart, to have the desire to dive deeper into myself and our world.
