I am energetic and fun once you get to know me. In new situations I'm quieter and laid back while I get the feel for things. I'm very considerate of others needs and emotions. There are not a lot of people that I don't get along with. My home is a place a place to rest and recharge, generally pretty tidy and I seldom host groups of people.

It’s fun to meet and host people. 😃

No formal CS experience but I hosted plenty of volunteers in my village while they hiked the Congo-Nile trail.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am culturally irrelevant most of the time. I do thoroughly enjoy watching some New Girl and mystery/crime tv shows. Music is something super important to me because so often it is the soundtrack to so many special times. That said, my taste in music is pretty eclectic.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Shark cage diving, wine tasting outside of Cape Town, and culinary master pieces on a charcoal stove.

Teach, Learn, Share

I lived in Africa for two years, would love to talk to you about it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A place to stay, some recommendations about what to see. Generally, I am not into going to see the typical LA sites or playing tour guide. I do have all the stuff for camping, including a 3 person tent so if our schedules align I would be down to go on a camping trip or hiking during your visit.
