Perpetual traveler, gardener, crafter, etc. From New York originally, raised in Hong Kong and Singapore.

For the past ~5 years I've been traveling and working around Asia, Canada, and the US, mainly to do work-trades on small farms and homesteads, and learning about permaculture/primitive living skills as a means to greater self-sufficiency. At the moment I mostly live in Asheville, NC, and spend most of my time training Judo and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu :)

I've also worked as a piano teacher and homework tutor to young children, and spent about a year working as an au pair in China and Hawaii.
