60 years old and still exploring the world and its lovely inhabitants. I love stories and storytelling… and everything is a story. The infinite diversity of narratives and mediums through which they are told/experienced is dazzling to me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love connecting with people and sharing stories. Plus, I LOVE Portland and I’m all about sharing/spreading that love 😁

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to cook, I’m a skilled actor and vocal performer, I’ve been playing role-playing games (like Dungeons and Dragons) for over 40 years… happy to share/teach any and all of those things.

As for learning… I think curiosity is one of the key elements to a happy life, so teach me stuff! 😀
