I'm a laid-back, kinda-quiet-till-you-get-to-know-me type of person. Which is why I don't know what to write here. Mostly I just follow high-energy people around so that I don't have to make decisions.

I have a lot of stories from my childhood in Africa. I like anything with lots and lots of cheese on top. I love educated conversations, but I'm always up for a mud fight. I'm terrified of heights, but there's nothing like the view from a treetop.

So anything goes, mostly, and I'll say as much if you ask. Just don't require me to make any decisions.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I'm not in a good hosting environment, so I guess I Couchsurf selfishly. Mostly, I love being able to see the local side of the places I go, and being on Couchsurfing makes that possible. Because "tourists" drive me nuts, even when I'm one of them.

Intereses

Food.
Art museums. And history.
Food.
Africa.
Gardens and botany and landscaping and ecosystems.
Hiking, XC skiing, getting "out."
More food.
Anything that's alive. Pets, pythons, penguins, pangolins- If I can catch it or or hold it without killing it or me, then I'm in.
Language. Writing.
Dark chocolate, cheese, and food.
