About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To hang the traveling hat on the wall and move to some land.

ABOUT ME

I enjoy rock climbing, biking, running, pretty much anything new.

I have also started thePOOSH.org with some friends, where people all over the world can meet up and teach each other natural/sustainable building skills.

PHILOSOPHY

Love

This life is a gift, and we should be living the fullest we can every day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I will always have a couch for you! The couch might be a spot on the floor though :) It just depends on your definition of couch.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I biked from San Fransisco to New York City in the summer of '09 and met some great people on couch surfing! I also have hosted many folks at our farm in Oregon, and met two lifelong friends.
I have also hitch hiked around Europe for 2 years (2012 & '13) and stayed with many random people.

Interests

Permaculture, natural building, biking, realizing that I am just another animal on this planet, running, bluegrass, rock climbing, becoming more wild.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy movies that challenge society, books that teach me something, and music that makes my right foot start a tappin'.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have seen unadulterated smiling humanity show itself in all types of people. Save 'em with bluegrass.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you to build a website, climb a 5.9 rated route, forage for your dinner, build a house with only materials you find in the nature in any temperate climate, and how to use current technology to better this planet.
