I am a former university professor, turned rogue printmaker, writer, publisher and archivist.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am traveling to Europe for 28 days on a tour for the 100th anniversary of the Dada art movement. I am visiting print shops, museums, archives, tombs, sacred sites, all related to Dada, it's complex history, and it's cast of characters.
