ABOUT ME

I grew up on the beach in Southern California, and now I live in the Northwest. I am a small scale farmer with a fondness for dancing to soul music.

PHILOSOPHY

"live like you'll die tomorrow, farm like you'll live forever"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted & been hosted now, both good experiences.

Before joining this site, I have lived in many collective houses & hosted many couch surfers, from various touring bands to foreign travelers. I've couch-surfed all across the US and in Europe. I have a lot of experience as a guest and a host.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Eating fresh munster cheese in the cave at a biodynamic farm in Alsace. Among other transcendental experiences.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to talk about food, farming & all aspects. Sharing ideas, picking people's brains about their experiences. While I've embraced my ultimate ignorance in the grand scheme of things, I have some knowledge about growing food & working on farms, baking and cooking, music, DIY communities.

I want to continue to learn with every day, and I am constantly seeking out people and places to visit and experience that will help achieve that goal.
