Part conservation scientist, policy analyst, lifetime student, assistant professor. Part bike traveler, tree climber, rigger, and cameraman for the canopy circus.

I love to nurture co-creative processes, to live abroad, to cook up surprise performances, to stumble across playful connected communities, and to live unexpected experiences.

Please visit my tree platform in the Colombian jungle (the Alunaris Tree Temple)

Some of my favorite beliefs:
1. I am not alone.
2. There's no reason to have fear.
3. I feel good when I make other people happy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I surfed in Albania, Austria, Brazil, Bolivia, Colombia, Croatia, Denmark, Ecuador, Egypt, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Jordan, Laos, Lebanon, Montenegro, Morocco, Peru, South Korea, Spain, the US, and Vietnam.

I hosted dozens of people from Argentina, Canada, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, India, Serbia, Spain, and the US.

Without any doubt the second-best way of traveling - right after living abroad.
