I cycled 900+ miles across Switzerland, Italy and France in September 2018. It was just as amazing as it sounds!

I'm a decent vegetarian cook, a strong writer and editor and as a former journalist, I know a bit, but only a bit, about a broad, random variety of subjects. I'm good at introducing people to each other, books, and other things that might interest them. I'm always interested in learning about other people's life experiences, in part because that's how to get to know them, but it also helps you understand how the world really works, as opposed to how we're told or assume it works. That kind of knowledge is really important to me. I aspire to speak decent Spanish someday, and especially to learn how to salsa dance - well.

Good stories, general friendliness, and future hospitality in Toronto!
