My day job involves telling stories about non profit organizations to help them increase awareness of what they do in the world. Most of them have purpose-driven causes at the heart of their operations: specifically, my clients usually fall in the spheres of conservation, education, public and mental health.

When I'm not doing that, I'm spending most of my time working with vegetables and cooking loads of food. Sometimes I read or write, and plunk away at a piano.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I love learning about places through others' eyes. Staying with people who have a connection to the city opens up a side that you just can't find through reviews.

Intereses

I like polar bears, gadgets, nonsense, and sci-fi/fantasy/dystopia/absurdist/nonsense/transgressive/satire.
Lately I've been practicing the traditional tea ceremony of Taiwan

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I bake a pretty mean array of animal-product-free foods. I would love to cook a meal for you!
