I'm a farmer and cheesemaker by trade. I studied fine art photography in university. I've lived across the Appalachian mountains and consider the northeast to be my home. Whilst traveling, I'm often looking for an interesting place to read, drink espresso, walk in nature, swim, and chat....willing to swim in all seasons especially if there's a sauna involved...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm hoping to meet interesting people and learn about pockets of cultures, particularly in food and community. I recently completed a 3 month solo road trip from Biddeford, Maine to San Diego, California, spending a month in Tucson, Arizona and then back east to West Virginia.

I was traveling through Europe and the UK in search of food, culture, and community. Now I've spontaneously taken a job making cheese on a cooperative Demeter farm in rural northern Germany. Still bouncing around on my days off and very unsure of what's next....
