I am a musician, bandleader, therapist, mother and semi homesteader. Originally from the bay area in California, I now live in the countryside, in a small home surrounded by trees, rocks and plants.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am looking for easy going, kind people that love animals as I occasionally need help with pet sitting for my 34 beautiful chickens and a formerly feral cat. I also enjoy meeting other musicians and farmers.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like all genres of music but lean towards indie folk, klezmer, vintage swing, shoegazer, 90s, folk, trip-hop, Bollywood, world music, electronica, classical.

Teach, Learn, Share

Music, backyard chickening. Lots of options to forage here, fossil hunt, meditate, hike or swim in the summer.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A small private guest room for temporary stays in exchange for farm care. People say the house has an old world feel. Some said there's a touch of gypsy caravan, although someone also once asked if I was a witch?

A car would be pretty helpful here, but I'm not far from downtown Leeds.
