CURRENT MISSION

revealing common ground while celebrating diversity

ABOUT ME

I love to hike and dance. Being out in nature is my church and dance is my community. I enjoy traveling, to learn about culture, people, language, and me.

PHILOSOPHY

We are all connected. Our stories might be different, specifically time and place, but the essence of our story, love, abandonment, forgiveness, accomplishment, the essence is the same.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first CS experience was awesome! It has been way too long, and it's time for me to get out and explore. I enjoy walking around neighborhoods, away from the tourists spots, to hear the language and laughter of community, to smell the regional foods, to see the art, clothing and buildings that characterize the culture of the neighborhood. I hope to make some changes in my own home to welcome CSers. I enjoy sitting around the table, or on my front porch, listening to the night sounds while discussing life, journeys, and definitely share a few laughs.

兴趣

Hiking, dancing, writing, spending time with honest, compassionate people who embrace living life fully. I value stories, from what stores are selected to tell, how the story is told, and the way we create our life stories. I believe stories are as important as our breath.

音乐、电影和书籍

Terry Tempest Williams
Diana Gabaldon
Stieg Larsson
Billy Collins

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Choosing to feel, really feel. Like so many people, I had a major transformation that required feeling, being honest with myself, and taking risks to step into the life I really wanted to live.

教，学，和分享

I love to share my passion for words and stories. It's what we say, the words we use, and what is avoided or silenced when we speak, that expresses our connection to ourselves and the world we live in. I offer writing workshops, to strengthen relationships with words and stories and am willing to have pop-up writing events. I have been involved with youth development, specifically with families living in poverty in the U.S. I appreciate learning how different countries and programs address the issues related to poverty.
