Hi! I'm Rafferty. I was born and raised in Santa Cruz, California, and have deep roots here. Aside from that, I love to travel!

I lived and worked in Edinburgh for most of Fall 2014, and got around to a lot of western Europe during that time. I return as often as I can to visit friends.

Note on "maybe excepting guests": I would LOVE to host anyone who wanted to, but I often find my time spread like butter over too much bread. From time to time when I'm able to host, I graciously do.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Stories of my life, complaints about the quality of local coffee shops, tips about hiking and biking, stoic views on society and politics.

I'm happy to cook a meal to share or take care of certain chores while staying!
