ABOUT ME

I'm curious, always interested in something new, and am a generally extroverted entertainer.

Empathy is essential - pay more attention to what people are trying to communicate than only the words they use to do so.

It's hard to make steadfast rules..."Be Somebody that Makes Everybody a Somebody" is one I like.

Son of a proud plumber - ardent student of the eclectic life; recently obsessed with Payday candy bars (oh vice, oh vice).

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't much - but if I can give people something as simple as a safe place for a night and some good food, I'm a happier person.

兴趣

I like to write, play, and climb; also good music, and some time to draw. There's nothing more therapeutic for me than climbing a mountain, staring at the microcosmos in the dirt beneath us, or cooking a meal with friends. Interested in farming, intentional communities, fermenting, labor of the hands and mind, understanding others. Lightning storms are an open invitation to dance and laughter.
