CURRENT MISSION

What makes the Hottentot so hot? What puts the "ape" in apricot? Courage!

ABOUT ME

I sing, play and write music (I'm not saying I do it *well*), and being on the road seems to help with that.

PHILOSOPHY

"Nothing is truly small"
-Victor Hugo

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Haven't in a while...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A smattering of stays across the US Great Plains

Interests

Music, places, poetry, roads. I like figuring out a place--what it's like, how it came to be, what kind of people belong there.

• poetry
• singing
• music
• languages

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm really music-centric. Love great songwriters and weird and psychedelic sounds. I like experimental and SF-y fiction, poetry, documentary films, westerns, Hitchcock... it's really not possible to answer this question.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, I had kids. That's pretty much the ultimate, though lots of people have done it.

I did field work in Kenya on the Dholuo language that's spoken there. I've released a couple CDs.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a lot about about language and languages.
