I am a hummingbird trapped inside a human body... but I can get along in just about every situation.

I love to really be a part of the culture and environment I am in. I enjoy cooking for myself and others and love hosting/sharing with new and old friends.

Eventually I will move out of the US for good, but for now I am traveling where I can when I can.
I am a carpenter/welder/artist so I can fix small things and have an eye for detail. Sometimes it’s a great thing.

I have a large dog. If you request to stay with me please be comfortable with big dogs

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am excited to meet strangers through my travels. I have to convince my housemates to let me host more =]

Interests

I read, climb trees, go on hikes, learn, build things, explore, eat delicious food. Cook delicious food. Save honey bees. Train my puppy to not be such a spaz. Scuba dive and snorkel when I can. Try to sleep in a hammock as often as possible. I love deep contemplative conversations and embracing the absurd. One must embrace the absurd to be able to enjoy life.
