About Me

They call me Doctor Farmer! No, not that kind of doctor... haha. I have my PhD in Molecular Biology. I wanted something more, so after graduating I studied permaculture and worked on a couple of organic farms. It was amazing! I'm back working in the lab now, but I'm also interested in traveling and seeing as many things as possible. I'm a hippie at heart!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people, making new friends, and giving and sharing with others. I heard that couchsurfing is a great way to do that. I feel like it's the best way to travel to new places where you don't know anyone.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all music! Classic rock, jam bands, psytrance, dubstep, pop, metal, classical, literally all music is AWESOME! I can also enjoy any kind of movie, from dramas to comedies, horror to animated. I don't read that many books but I'm into books on spirituality or any book that tells a really good story.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent 6 months in Israel working on an ecological farm and learning about permaculture. It was one of the most amazing experiences of my life and I really enjoyed learning there, along with traveling the country and finding great communities and people to hang out with!

Teach, Learn, Share

If you want to know anything about biology, I can definitely teach you! Haha. I'm also into meditation and yoga and love to share my practice with anyone. I have a permaculture design certificate and would be happy to teach you about permaculture or even help you set up a sustainable permaculture system or garden in your house or apartment. I love to cook, and make simple delicious meals. I'm a very open-minded and happy person!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm happy to cook meals for hosts, provide copious amounts of hugs, and share any knowledge or conversations with you. Also would love to buy hosts a drink or two and go out to have a fun night!
