CURRENT MISSION See some people and meet some places.

ABOUT ME: My favorite sea creature is the Loch Ness Monster and my favorite toothpaste is the minty kind. I'd like to do a lot of things in my days on this fair planet. For now I'm enjoying learning and I plan to continue doing so until I'm a blue haired old lady. And then I'll probably learn whatever it is that blue haired old ladies know. I fancy myself easy to get along with. I love listening to stories, everyone's stories, your stories! I was born, raised, and stayed in Portland, OR, but now I am unfortunately unable to host Couchsurfers because I live in my truck. My truck-house can usually be found parked somewhere along the Sierra Nevada mountain range of California these days.

PHILOSOPHY: A person doesn't really need a whole lot more than food, water, community, and maybe a good pair of shoes.
