CURRENT MISSION

Meet people and share stories and ideas

ABOUT ME

I'm the eldest of four and wear glasses.
I enjoy being around people - new friends and old - but also love wandering on my own, letting my feet guide me.
I like hiking, biking, drinking tea and talking, going out, listening to music, art galleries, window shopping, bookstores, libraries, playing mandolin and singing. I also like dancing (especially swing and salsa)

PHILOSOPHY

Challenge the limits, but respect them.

Musica, film e libri

I don't watch many movies, but I like them. I recently saw Exit through the Gift Shop. I watch the Wire. I enjoy short stories these days - and non-fiction.

Insegna, impara, condividi

I could teach some basic mandolin, some fermentation techniques (I love making Kefir!), gluten-free baking, introductory rock climbing. Basic French, German, English, Economic theory...
I'd love to learn more bike skills, gardening techniques, cooking skills, maybe a knitting pattern - hands-on skills.
