CURRENT MISSION

Finding allies to solve global health inequality

ABOUT ME

I am pretty much a wanderer by nature, I have trouble focusing on one thing. I like to goof off but I also have a serious side.

PHILOSOPHY

Robin Hood is my idol. Along these lines I think Paul Farmer is essentially a prophet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am surfing!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None so far: my brother slept in my room in England once - curled up under newspapers in the cold - not sure this counts as a couch though!

Interests

druids, healing, exploring (but not conquest), learning, listening, stories

• electronics
• surfing
• astronomy
• engineering
• physics

Music, Movies, and Books

dystopian fiction, and I get a kick out of ethnographic studies of the apparently familiar

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I grew human organs in a lab (heart and skin)- creepy!

Teach, Learn, Share

My engineering training means I know how to build a steam engine or a power plant, though I have no idea how to fix a car (go figure). I know a lot about Linux, electronics, and computers in general. I used to be really into astronomy and physics.
