CURRENT MISSION

I am a theatre artist and I aim to create my life the way I create my art, to live it all fully and joyously.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to live my life to the fullest, experiencing as many things as fully as I can. I also try to remain grounded and centered and allow things to happen for me in their own time. It's all about balance and off-balance.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I find that by leading a life enriched by the beautiful diversity of the people and experiences I surround myself with I also stay in a state of creative inspiration for my theatre work. At the moment I'm traveling and couch surfing before I move back to Minneapolis. Once I am more established in Minneapolis I hope to offer up my couch to some others who find themselves on a journey.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I first moved to London I was staying with an amazing group of people whom I previously did not know. They were all former students of the school I was going to start and were from a variety of countries, mainly southern European countries, Italy, Spain, Portugal, etc. The house was so warm and had this amazing free-spirited energy. We cooked meals together and stayed up late into the night discussing many things in depth. I will cherish the time I spent in that house for the rest of my life. It was a good omen for the next two years I was going to spend in London as well which did prove to be life changing.
