I've taken a mini-hiatus from my book publishing gig and am travelling the US for the next month or so. I'll be finishing up helping to build Earthships in New Mexico and am super keen to meet new people in their natural habitat who are interested in music, local food, alternative living spaces and just want to share a laugh.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a great way to meet people. I'm not that down with ordering room service while staring out of a hotel window, wondering what the hell all the fun peeps are doing. I want to experience it all and really get to know the local wildlife.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've sailed the Atlantic ocean three times.

Teach, Learn, Share

I just want to learn more and pick people's brains for information. I'm a journo by trade, so always curious!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A laugh. Some stories. I'm a relatively OK cook, so I'd love to help you with that (and possible learn about some local cuisine along the way) and I'm a clean and respectful person to be around.
