I never thought I’d say this, but I just moved back to my hometown of Portland, Maine. Wild! I’m fixing up an 1880 house I just bought and learning so much along the way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Firing this back up because I miss connecting with folks without the exchange of currency, which is feeling rarer and rarer these days.

Music, Movies, and Books

Quality media I've consumed lately is the film Everything Everywhere All At Once, the book Filthy Animals by Brandon Taylor, and the friend I’m visiting in Sweden is playing Gillian Welsh in the background.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm trying to learn how to draw, share your tips and join me at life drawing! I’d love to hear what you're learning about yourself these days.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My massage skills might be better than my cooking, and I am happy to gift either, or at least do the dishes!
