One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Drove my old car across the country until it blew up in Wyoming. Drove another old car across the country two years after : )

Teach, Learn, Share

I like experimenting in the kitchen, breakfast is my favorite meal (I can do many variations of the pancake or waffle), fermentation is fun! Kombucha, sauerkraut, veggies.

I have some crazy stories about working in the entertainment industry, maybe we can chat over coffee or tea.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love sharing! Whether it be stories, a bottle of wine or a lovely meal. Also a good travel companion because I'm easy-going and love learning new things.
