Right now I'm trying to have genuine interactions with other people in all aspects of my life. (My success with this varies.)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love traveling, and I try to center my experiences around nature and human interaction, not mindless consumption. I find that when I travel this way (WWOOFing, hitchhiking, trekking, camping, couchsurfing, dumpster diving, etc) it is much more rewarding.

I really resent the commercialization of couchsurfing. I'm on Trustroots and BeWelcome (same username), which I think are much more ethical platforms.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I spent over a year of my life working with people who have developmental disabilities, which changed many of my perspectives.

I've also hitchhiked alone quite extensively, which I was frightened to do at first.

I recently spent a month at the Oceti Sakowin camp near Standing Rock. It was a radical and profound experience to put into practice the ideas nonviolent civil disobedience and weaponizing white privilege.

教，学，和分享

I'm willing to share/teach just about anything I know- baking yeasted breads, card games, tips for picking up a language, etc. I can read your tarot!
I'm especially interested in learning more about organic gardening, vegan baking, bicycle maintenance, wood working, train hopping, survival skills, Krav Maga, programming, and squatting.
