I am interested in the mutual transmission of knowledge, stories, skills, and passions. Travel should be about enriching one's life through meaningful experiences and connections -- let's do just that.

Music: Folk music, bluegrass, classical, jazz, soft rock, world music, and anything new! Movies: Planet Earth, Grand Budapest Hotel, LoTR, Wizard of Oz, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, foreign films, documentaries TV: Curb your Enthusiasm, Game of Thrones, Westworld Books: Lots of non-fiction science.
