Hello! I have recently relocated to California to co-create a life that is first and foremost authentic for me. Most of my beautiful family and community is in Illinois, but I have strong connections here as well. This is a new beginning in every sense of the term, and I am grateful, hopeful, and humbled to be experiencing this life. I am a healer, energy worker, clairvoyant, and spiritual medium. I also identify as an Introvert (INFJ personality type), Empath and Highly Sensitive Person. (Don't let those things confuse you...I'm also very warm, caring, compassionate & I LOVE a good sense of humor!) I am visually oriented, creative, expressive, yet quiet and mindful. I love art in all forms, everything local, planet-conscious, sustainable, and real. An eclectic mix sums me up pretty well. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am currently living and working in Humboldt County, CA but am interested in moving South in the near future. The further South the better. :) I would love to check out places from Ojai through Chula Vista and everything in between, and Couchsurfing seems like a great way to do that!

Interests

See the "About Me" section...but here's a bit more:

I love dance, particularly belly dance. I paint, preferably on walls but canvas is okay, too. I have a new found love for glass blowing, and I would like to create pottery again. I'm very much interested in being involved with a community that is environmentally conscious, as I enjoy volunteering to clean up & generally improving where I make my home. I'm fascinated by science, space, the Moon, and I love working with stones and crystals. I am interested in everything really, but this is a good start.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done many amazing things! The latest being this move and commitment to a living a life of service that I love. One amazing thing that comes to mind is agreeing to be me. To show up daily. To be present for myself and others. (I'm not good at this part. Personality thing haha).

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a pretty decent amount of knowledge about herbs/natural medicine. I really enjoy helping others find healing through natural means & helping them learn to listen to their bodies. For example, if you experience anxiety or sleeplessness, lemon balm is an incredible option for most. :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Great company, if so desired, help with chores, great conversation, even better listening, and any of the small resources I may have.
