About Me

I'm a journalist and work from home. I like having company but am often busy, so sometimes will say no to preserve my sanity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like people! I've met some really interesting people on CS and hope to continue to do so.

I usually prefer a few days' lead time, so you'll have better luck if you don't request to stay at the last minute.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love to read, and am always looking for new suggestions. I someday hope to recover Shantaram, one of my favourite books, which I loaned to my first couchsurfer and never got back.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've worked in every Arctic country, plus Antarctica.
