I'm a friendly and easygoing silly goose who likes to make new friends and make people laugh. I love bird watching, making art, making music, gardening and doing improv.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've hosted some people and surfed a wee bit. Mostly outside of the framework of this site though.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spontaneously joined the crew of a tall ship and sailed the Saint Lawrence.

...Because I've always wanted to do something like that (specifically a nautical thing) and when I asked they said I could come with them but they were leaving the port in 2 hours. So I quit the job I'd just started on my way home to pack a bag and hurried back. We set sail. I got to take the helm. Etc. Incredible experience. I've always ALWAYS wanted to sail. I still do. I want more.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn about everything. I know moderate amounts about many things. I wish to be a sponge of knowledge and wisdom. I wish to absorb your teachings of all kinds. Sustainable lifestyle things. Self-sufficient things. Recycling repurposing things. Fixing building making changing. Skillsharing!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can trade you a piece of art (drawing, lil ceramic sculpture, small painting), I can teach you a bit about music or art-making, I can help out around the house and/or yard, teach you about plants, birds, or offer some real money if you like.
