Born and raised in California. I live in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I started hosting Couchsurfers in 2006 when I lived in Japan. I've surfed a few times, and met up with CSers many other times.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I haven’t had a bad CSing experience- many years of CSing goodness.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music- Crunchy guitars, crooning soulfulness, or a funky attitude. I also really enjoy the bluegrass.
Film- Rivers and Tides. Black Power Mixtape. 180º South. Network. Buena Vista Social Club. What Plants Talk About. Century of the Self. Surviving Progress. Coconut Revolution. Manufactured Landscapes.
Currently reading: History.
I read about history, politics, race, the patriarchy, ecology, and poetry, and other light topics.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I survived a mudslide while climbing Mt. Shasta (14,179 ft/4,322 m) solo. Terrifying. Also exhilarating.
Teach, Learn, Share
I want to learn: how to produce a zine, how to knit a beanie, how to weld, how to silkscreen. The list is long.
