CURRENT MISSION

To meet wonderful people and show them the best of Oakland/Berkeley/San Francisco.

ABOUT ME

I savor good conversation and am interested in an open mind.
In my spare time, I enjoy:
Dance: flamenco, Tango, salsa, Afro-cuban
Organic farming and gardening
Reading the New Yorker (obsessively when I'm sick)
Delicious food, especially gourmet raw and gourmet slow-food
Cooking at home, especially efficient and inexpensive meals like lentils and rice.
Being in quiet, open places watching other species like ants, lizards and birds
Watching "Planet Earth" or "Good Eats"
Children and cats - I love both but have neither in my life.

PHILOSOPHY

Respect others in all walks of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I rode my bike across France for two weeks with my adventurous friend, Elizabeth. We couch surfed along the way and meet wonderful, generous hosts.
