CURRENT MISSION

To benefit my community and world through the unique power of food and compassion

ABOUT ME

I love the outdoors & nurturing people with the locally sourced food that I create and forage. I am a burgeoning buddhist looking to deepen my practice. I read voraciously, practice an eight hundred year old japanese martial art, play latin hand percussion, like cheesy action flicks and have an insatiable desire to learn and have fun.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life to live my life as it is each minute

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have just joined this community through the recommendation of friend before i head to Thailand. I would participate by offering my couch as a place to stay as well as bringing my culinary skills and sense of humor to any welcoming host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've definitely been the grateful beneficiary of many a friend's couch in my lifetime and in fact lived on a couch for about two years when i was in college.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

Insegna, impara, condividi

Cooking: I have a deep knowledge of the food from many traditional food cultures and am constantly learning more and love to teach.
