About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To understand my purpose in this crazy cosmic creation

ABOUT ME

I am always looking for new adventures and people to expand my mind. I love sharing what I know and have with others and creating experiences with people. I have so much to learn from this world and the more I learn, the more I realize I don't know anything. I want to learn how to live more symbiotically with the universe and thrive with the earth.

PHILOSOPHY

Be good family.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting when I can, living vicariously through travelers. Meeting other cs locals.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have never had a bad one (I get that question fairly often). I used to meet people at rainbow gatherings and couch surf with them if I was hitchhiking through. Ever since having joined cs.org I have met some amazing lifelong friends and had nothing but great experiences.

Interests

So many things... I'm interested in music, people, the Earth. Going to festivals, being free, everyone else being free, art, dancing. Sitar, didgeridoo, gardening, hiking, learning, growing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My most memorable moments are the ones I made while backpacking around. I packed up my car with friends and started traveling. When the starter went out, we all stuck out our thumbs and hitch hiked around the west coast. One of the highlights was getting a ride from the bass player from Nirvana.
