I am trying to live the dream and have a good balance of travel and building community where I live in San Diego. I'm very passionate about all things nature and outdoors, especially sailing, bike packing, hiking and paragliding, DIY, local food, and community/collective living, cooperatives. I'm a lawyer and a farmer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have a month holiday to travel in New Zealand before I start work again.

Interests

I farm, make great food, practice law, build and make things, write and take photos!
