Music, Movies, and Books
These are all the same thing: stories, and a I do like a good story. I'll read the health information on tinned jams or your unpublished novella.
I'm more into content creation these days.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In pursuit of stoic enlightenment I leased an abandoned medical centre gutted by the prior keyholder in a failed growroom installation. No windows, no interior walls, wiring or plumbing. I lived there for eight years with a cat and when she died I moved on.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can show you how to build a tin can gasifier, I'll discuss permaculture or teach you how to dig a round post hole with an iron bar.
Or we can geek out on computer gaming and internet history (my first job was selling SNES games and I had my first internet account suspended in 1994 for misuse of university facilities)
What I Can Share with Hosts
My zen farmboy talents are at your disposal. I can change a lightbulb. I can assist with your pot plants or cat litter. I have powertools. Oh and I can drive you somewhere.
