About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Smash the patriarchy.
Foster a world community, ecologically mindful living, inclusiveness, and egalitarianism.
Learn and travel as much as I possibly can!

ABOUT ME

Energetic, enthusiastic, thoughtful, curious
I have a passion for travelling and seeing new places and ways of living. I've recently discovered an appreciation for travelling domestically on farms and homesteads learning permaculture practices.

PHILOSOPHY

You can learn something from everyone you meet if you give them a chance.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As a sporadic traveler I have had the opportunity to be hosted but not yet host, help me to change this!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was introduced to couchsurfing from a friend in Thailand. We stayed with a host in Penang Malaysia and it was wonderful. I have since surfed around the west coast from the Portland, OR USA down to Santiago, Chile. I have also met up with surfers and hosts to hang out. I look forward to being able to host!

Interests

I enjoy doing anything artsy and anything out under the sun. Backpacking, trekking, camping, sports, sun bathing, etc. Meeting new people and experiencing new cultures, even within the US is thrilling to me! I love foraging, growing, harvesting, cooking, and eating food! Dumpster diving is especially thrilling.

Teach, Learn, Share

I crave new knowledge and skills. Always asking questions and exploring, which is why I'm sort of a jack-of-many-trades-master-of-none-kinda-gal.
I'm currently learning and sharing when I can: permaculture and farming practices, banjo and spoon playing, nutrition, jewelry making.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Urban foraging skills, banjo and spoon playing, basket weaving, cooking, stimulating conversation, permaculture practices, chicken processing, laughter
