ABOUT ME

I work with my hands in the dirt. I'm an aspiring farmer who's been distracted by wilderness work for the last several years, but, it's allowed me to live all over the U.S. and to see really remote, beautiful places that I may not have otherwise.

PHILOSOPHY

share the bounty!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've definately surfed on friends' couches before, but I'm brand new to this site.

Interests

music! I play banjo and guitar (and I love to square dance, contra dance, any dance really, but partner dancing is the best...), food, baking pies, making apple butter, good beer, metal work, farming, hand tools, and the passing on of tradition.
