About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Surfing trip along the west coast, north to south...

ABOUT ME

I'm living my dream of surfing down the west coast. I just graduated from school and am manifesting some serious down time before the professional life gets rollin'. Think I've been in school for like 12 yrs or something. Kinda ridiculous. All of my free-spirited and spontaneous adventure energy has been brewing for some time now, so looking for some fun. That being said, I'm open to partying but completely content kicking back and drinking some good tea and writing/reading. I'm also traveling solo, so I'm very self-sufficient. Very respectful and considerate of others.

PHILOSOPHY

Follow your heart, live passionately, be open to learning, and heal, grow, and love. Surround yourself by those who are supportive of your life vision. Choose to empower yourself and others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Enjoy community and being with people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

First timer. Although, our house has hosted couchsurfers.

Interests

Too many to count! Currently, I've been working on my juggling. I also spin fire poi. Love to be outdoors and doing anything that connects me more with nature. Also, I have an obvious interest in natural medicine and healing (Please don't ask me what you should take or do for your health issues. I don't have a license yet for one, and for two, I'm on vacation...hehe...thanks for understanding. Talking generally about medicine is wonderful and invited. :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Love to dance and listen to music; enjoy reading books that are thought-provoking, nature orientated, and inspires me to be a better person; don't watch TV, but movies are wonderful.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hmmm...traveled around Europe for a bit, worked on a fishing boat in Alaska for 3 months, completed 5-year graduate program, have done a 7-day water fast, 10-day silent meditation retreat, and various other retreats. I am learning how to love and be loved more and more each day. :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I have lots to offer around subjects of sociology, medicine, nature, shamanism, astrology, and on and on. I love to learn so pretty much anything is game.
