我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

So 10 years ago, I decided I needed to learn to stay in one place. I've worked my way through college and find myself itching to return to my travel bug roots. I want to reclaim that feeling that I can reach out to people and connect as I travel through in a meaningful way. I want to be helpful and a positive addition to every home I go to and I want to be changed by everyone I meet.

兴趣

Well I have been a Jazz singer, a dog sledder, trained in scuba diving, and relearning the art of solo camping.

I continue my research from UMBC in Interdisciplinary study work and hope to figure out how to begin publishing my work involving Media, Philosophy, Sociology, Economic history and social psychology.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Dogsledding for 21 days in Northern Minnesota. We slept on the ice in sleeping bags under the stars, carried most of our gear on our backs and cross country skied a fair amount through a preserve. It was -20 degrees most nights and it got down to -60 once. That was the 24 hours of solo camping I completed. That was the most miserable exhilarating experience of my life and I wanted to go right back out there the minute it was over.

教，学，和分享

I can teach singing (Jazz, folk, bluegrass, appalacian, cajun, motown, country and some classical) for both adults and am certified to teach small children; I can help with most tutoring situations and can help brainstorm college stuff as I worked my way through and had to figure out the plan as it happened; I can teach some acting, crochet, knitting, embroidery, any textile based art; some recipes.

I love to learn - if you've got something you're passionate about then tell me all about it. I'm comfortable finding ways to keep myself entertained (figuring out the whole blogging world) but definitely up for an adventure.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I am a fantastic guest. I can blend into any house culture and feel most comfortable when I can be of help. I like to leave a place happier, cleaner, brighter, and more filled with joy than when I came and I want to make sure that I continue to learn as much as I can from everyone I meet.
