Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been an avid hitchhiker for years and feel couch surfing has similar elements of trust, sharing and story telling that I cherish deeply. It's such a great way to meet amazing people and go out exploring new places with friendly faces.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I almost kissed a bear, and lived to tell the tale. Maybe it's not the most amazing thing, but it feels good to cheat death when you can.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My knowledge and passion for textiles and stories from the many years of being out in the bush tree planting in northern British Columbia. Blood, sweat and too many tears.
