CURRENT MISSION

To live creatively!

ABOUT ME

I am a space-time wanderer.

PHILOSOPHY

The world is a bizzarely inexplicable playground.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

You are likely to find me at one of Portland's weekly meet-ups, getting to know new people and catching up with the longer term residents. I try not to miss the adventures that happen in PDX; there's so much to do! I have surfed only a couple of times, but I'm looking forward to my next excursion.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, being a part of CS is like having family everywhere you go. Like a big crazy family, the people I've met have been welcoming, weird, fun, and usually have the most unlikely stories to tell. I'm pretty happy that I've fallen in with this crowd.

Interests

Music, cooking, coffee, mask-making, illustration, art, beer and wine, books, cats, hikes, the phenomenon of existence.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Driven to the top of a mountain in a Mustang convertible rental car. Exciting, but not advisable. The view, however, was definitely worth it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I will impart my knowledge about how to make a proper loaf of bread to anyone who is interested. I'm a bit of a purist--real bread shouldn't have more than a few ingredients. (Wonder bread? What's that?) Who doesn't like a nice hot slice of fresh-baked bread?
