CURRENT MISSION

get out of my comfort zone, to change things enough that I will need to change along with them, to explore (the world and myself), discover how to live, REALLY live, figure out how to be me without THINGS (art supplies, instuments, spices)

ABOUT ME

that's a lot to ask...I'll have to come back to this...soon!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm new to this group, but for the last few years I have lived in warehouse-style artist communities that were always full of travellers coming and going. It was great to get a little taste of their culture while they stayed and I am excited to start surfing myself.
