Climbed Mt. Kenya when I was 13 Rode an ostrich, snuggled with a cheetah, fought a baboon Walked through an archeological dig from the worlds oldest human settlements outside Jericho, on rope bridges strung hundred of feet up between trees in the Ghanian rainforest, and across miles of exposed coral reef of the coast of Kenya at low tide Survived malaria twice. Somehow never been arrested, deported, or shot! Was a vegetarian for eight years. When I started eating meat again my roommates and I bought a goat, slaughtered and butchered it. Know where your food comes from!

So happy to hang out in a kitchen, making food to share or learning new cuisines! I'm only really fluent in English, but learning/practicing other languages makes me happy! (Also happy to hang out with folks that are working on their english and want a conversation partner)

Food and friendship! I'd love to stay with people who are engaged in alternative living, social justice initiatives, or other non-mainstream situations... So I can offer you solidarity, and good conversation too!
