CURRENT MISSION to make the world a more equitable place tomorrow than it is today. mostly i do this through agriculture -- i manage a small farm / youth social services nonprofit outside of portland, oregon. we employ young people with barriers to thriving in traditional systems and grow a whole lot of food for neighbors experiencing food insecurity. ABOUT ME i love words, and images, and things that are alive. my art and photography is at www.theoppositeofwar.com -- take a look if you like. PHILOSOPHY think critically, love extravagantly, live ethically.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE i have hosted while living in three countries and surfed in twenty eight -- i have met people and had experiences that i still recall often and fondly -- camping trips in norway, road trips in uruguay, pre-dawn cycling in austria, revolution in egypt. without couchsurfing, traveling alone could be a lonely thing.
