ABOUT ME
My great-grandparents are Scottish, German, Swiss, Dutch, French, and Finnish, so my bones come from there. I was brought up in the suburbs of los angeles. There, with the help of my dad's humor and intellectual philosophizing and my mom's enthusiastic appreciation of anything creative, I learned to seek magic in suburbia.
I love to laugh, and to connect with people. I love to feel the enormous power of life, in all of its many forms.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
The experiences I've had surfing couches in the Pacific Northwest have been quite heartening.

Lehren, lernen, teilen
I can teach some plant propagation & medicinal uses, basic botany, a little plant/lichen/mushroom physiology and how to use a dichotomous key! Also, a lot of other random natural history tidbits. I'm interested in sharing cooking methods, favorite herbs for tea, writing space, languages, music-making, and singing revelations!
