CURRENT MISSION

To make a living doing what I love.

ABOUT ME

I have traveled a LOT in my life and love to spend time with others who enjoy exploration as well. I now have roots in Portland, but still love to fly off to here or there on occasion. Lately most of my travels are local, which I have been enjoying. I have been treated very kindly by many people throughout my travels and I always like to repay the kindness by offering a place to stay and some local help to fellow travelers.
