CURRENT MISSION

Creating culture through education in organic food production

ABOUT ME

I don't do anything halfway. I am courteous, conscientious, and playful of and with my surroundings and those I'm with. I am a humble entrepreneur for the 21st century and place social and environmental investment as a condition before profit.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in people and that we are what we give and are remembered by and for it. I've studied most religions in my spare time, committed to 13 moons with a Lakota road man, and have enjoyed reading history not as an end, but as a means to appreciate and respect the diversity of our shared earth.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting and surfing... eating good food together.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My wife and I unofficially hosted some couch surfers and love it! We have been talking about it for long enough so here we are with an open invitation. It always feels good to share.

Interests

Organic food production, cooking, canning, and otherwise preserving food to share with friends and family. I am often behind a camera and can find beauty anywhere. Marion and I love discovering the world, whether here in Colorado or abroad.
