我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

It's time to make my life more open ended, more open to possibility. Making human connections is what life is about.

兴趣

Sustainable agriculture, the outdoors. I recently scuba certified while in Guam.

音乐、电影和书籍

Pandora says my tastes are "jangle pop". Dr. Who and Sherlock and anything else Steven Moffat might come up with belong in this section, and I like to read Carl Hiassen, Louise Penny, and other light stuff. I read more thought provoking material in an earlier life, pre-kids. Now I prefer things I can read in an evening.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

This trip has felt pretty amazing so far! We've been on the road for about 6 weeks as of early July. The first night out camping by myself and my 3 year old, I could hardly sleep worried about bears and stuff. Now I've shooed a bear off the campsite and slept like a log the same night.
