Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Restoration.
ABOUT ME
I like relating with life in the garden, in the forest, on the dance floor, and most recently under the microscope, exploring the microcosmos. Please ask me to write out and explain your Mayan astrology chart because the time and travel it took to learn how to do it begs for it to be used. At home, I study herbs and make medicines, garden, make beer, and love to cook simple food, with some sort of emphasis on southern comforts. I like to share. I love to study.
It's important if you're visiting that you know my partner, Mike, and I have been restoring a house in a little valley of its own surrounded by trees. We have a spring, an outhouse, and solar power. As the house progresses, we'll be able to offer showers, but not just yet.
PHILOSOPHY
Enjoy. Then go learn something new.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've crashed floors and couches on journeys across this grand-sized land and have hosted friends on theirs - finally settled in enough to the house we've been fixing up to invite folks over. We love hosting self-contained travelers and people interested in having a fire, shooting air rifles, and drinking while talking about neuroscience, travel, and politics.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Transformed a dark house filled with dirty walls into a cozy home running on its own energy and water.
Teach, Learn, Share
My particular interest is in medicinal and useful plants and their biochemical mechanisms as well as their spiritual/social implications and effects. New!! I can share your Mayan horoscope! Exciting!
