I love food, friends, nature, mellow hikes, and quiet reading. I'm kinda an introvert, but love traveling and enjoy meeting new people in small quantities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe in establishing a global egalitarian system based in a gift economy. I believe in contributionism and want to give my gifts and resources to the world, and to trust people rather than corporations to house me when I'm wandering.

Interests

I'm a gift economy, intentional community, and tiny home enthusiast. I want to learn more about permaculture. I love visiting dive restaurants with great food. I love trails.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've visited and lived. I love it, and am interested in hosting folks traveling from communities.

Teach, Learn, Share

Can teach about contributionism, intentional community. Can share some off grid skills. Can teach/show how to make origami crane or circular breathe on didgeridoo.

I'm learning Esperanto.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I bake cookies, muffins, and quick breads from scratch and am advanced at the art of breakfast. I usually do a lot of dishes for whoever lets me stay.

I'm an experienced couch surfer who's really good at low impact guesting, respecting hosts lifestyles and requests, and keeping my chaos to a tight corner.
