CURRENT MISSION

To learn about communities, cityscapes, and environments. To explore as much as possible. To meet new people and engage in my surroundings.

ABOUT ME

I've lived in Vermont, Colorado, Oregon and London. I have since returned to Portland.
I studied English literature, writing, and business at university, and have just recently graduated.
I love to cook and bake, listen to music, write, explore, find adventures... I pretend to like running, sometimes I try to speak French.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In I climbed 4 14,000+ mountains with my family after winter camping on the side of the mountain. It was exhausting and not something I did/do regularly, but it was a fantastic experience.
Activities like this remind you what your body is capable of.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about semantics and literature? I love to talk about literature, culture, and city development. I also like to learn about these things. Mostly I just like to discuss the present and the future with relation to our environment.
I would like to learn to be a better cook and how to speak French more fluently.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would love to cook you a meal! I'm not a particularly good cook, but I enjoy cooking and sharing and eating.
