ABOUT ME

Theater director; my wife is a stay-at-home mom/gardener/baker/chef.

Two kids. Samuel is 9; Phoebe is 3.

My wife is from France. We've been married a long time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been so fortunate to travel all over the world. Less so now that I have kids. But, I love the idea of sharing where I live with people. I like showing people around. After twenty years in San Diego, we've just moved to Seattle!

Interests

Theater, movies, food, reading, and bad television.

My wife: gardening, baking, cooking.

Samuel and Phoebe: normal kid stuff.
