Born and raised in Arizona. Wide open spaces and landscapes that are larger than life... that's where I feel at most at home. But I love city surfing for fun, culture, and friends. Cities are jungles too!

I love the outdoors and all outdoor thrills. I rock climb, boulder, hike, camp, backpack, road trip, bike, swim, sail, ski, yoga, horseback ride -- and if I haven't ever tried it, I probably want to.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because this type of community has given me so much opportunity in my life!
I have been couch surfing for 7 years :-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I wrote a book about permaculture that I am going to publish in 2019 :-)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can talk philosophy all day, if you're interested. I really love to cook nutritionally balanced plant based meals, too! I wild forage foods, I know how to grow foods and create a garden... how to grow mushrooms... all kinds of off-the-grid type of things. Alternative lifestyles and underground culture.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love sharing. Joy in abundance, gratitude in abundance. If you like, I can bring you organic wild foraged plant medicine from California, where I am living and guerilla gardening right now. Let's share our best stories and our laughter.
