CURRENT MISSION

...absolute surrender...

ABOUT ME

I am a happy person. I love my life and feel completely blessed for all the wonderful things I have experienced. I am a daydreamer, and can spend hours upon hours dreaming up all manner of things I would like to experience in life. I believe absolutely anything is possible.

What you see is what you get with me. I am very independent! I smile a lot because I genuinely can find a lot of things to smile about.

I have undergone an evolution over the past few years...from one hell of a party girl to someone who now doesn't smoke, take drugs or drink and I am even working towards getting off sugar. This can intimidate some people as they equate that to be boring...seriously, I think I am far more interesting and entertaining these days and I have far more energy too!

I listen to my body so I sleep when I am tired, eat when I am hungry, take time out to be still, dance when I need to move my body and sit in the sunshine whenever I can.

How can we truly capture what we're about with the limitation of words in this little space?

PHILOSOPHY

I think people would be happier in this world if we just let everyone "be"...the only control we ever have is over our own actions, thoughts, emotions and lives.

We could make things easier for ourselves if we were nicer to each other but ultimately, if someone isn't nice then I have found not getting upset about it has just as much positive impact on my own life. I try to be a complete "being" without need for external validation and reassurance and expecting people to behave in any particular way. So I will be me and you can be you and that's okay that we are different because I know underneath we are all actually one...so please just go out and enjoy yourself and live happily and laugh as that will truly change the world we live in.

I believe in the collective consciousness of our world and I contribute to that by doing things that bring me joy and having a happy life. I want to be a living example of the peace I wish to see in the world...sometimes I am not as "zen" as I want to be but I try to put positive thought into action, be encouraged by the positive actions of others, accept people just as they are, listen to my spirit, experience the amazing things this world has to offer and not take things too seriously! The only time we ever truly have is simply "now".

"Just living is not enough. One must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower" Hans Christian Anderson

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

How do I participate? By loving it, talking about it, believing in it, using it...by becoming part of the community that exists here and letting my imagination run wild about the ways in which it can change my life.

I had the opportunity to be involved further by doing a stint as the Member Communications Team Coordinator back in 2008, and living and working with amazing CouchSurfers at the Thailand and Alaska Collectives.

I've had a bit of a break from CouchSurfing as I absorbed myself in studying, soul searching, and general naval gazing about life and all that it means. Now I find myself in a home with roomies that aren't too keen on the idea, so I am respectful of that and will wait until I have my own place again one day.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

After years of unofficial couchsurfing before discovering the website, I feel like the whole world opened up for me to meet more remarkably open-minded people and also return the level of kindness I have been shown. I have constantly been blown away by the people I have met through CS - its an awesome community we have here!

Teach, Learn, Share

Learn - there is just soooo much I don't know about this world so if you want to, share with me anything you are passionate about and I will happily sit there and learn and ask questions and be interested because it IS interesting because you are interested in it...its a simple as that for me.

Teach - I am happy to pass on my skills in making a self-crusting quiche that anybody can master!

Share - ask me any question and I will give you an answer :-)
