About Me

PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS AS A DATING WEBSITE. I WILL NOT RESPOND. If you are reaching out with an offer to travel together and host, I expect some reason to be given.

This profile is minimal as I'd like to connect with a potential host, couchsurfer or travel mate before deciding if it's a good fit.

CURRENT MISSION (circa 2006!)

To unfurl my seams until all protective layers peel back from the muscle and bone of my heart and mind.

PHILOSOPHY

Too limiting.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To learn and share in equal measure.

Interests

political aesthetics, community and networks, location and space, sustainable systems, salvaging and refurbishing, staying active (traveling, being outdoors, volunteering, creating).

  • architecture
  • photography
  • yoga
  • traveling
  • outdoor activities
  • volunteering
  • sustainable development
  • design thinking
  • social entrepreneurship
  • political philosophy

Music, Movies, and Books

Yes and in excessive quantities.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Survived up until now.

Teach, Learn, Share

At the very least, I have my self to share. Conversations, stories, opinions, moral qualms, obsessions, a critical eye, maybe. A background in design, culinary arts, law, management, and yoga, and very antsy mind and hands means I'd love to share more.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My ability to listen, contribute to projects and household upkeep, general goodwill.

Countries I’ve Visited
