Greetings, I'm a freelance writer/editor who works from home in upstate NY. I'm married with two kids (one in college, one soon-to-be) and looking at some new free time on my hands for travel and hosting.
Interested in Adventure Sports
Interested in Animals
Interested in Beer
Fluent in English
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Mostly to host anyone who has an odd reason to be in this part of the world.
Music, Movies, and Books
That's too hard. If I'm lucky my favorite book is whatever I'm currently reading. Music runs the gamut from Agnes Obel to New Order. Movies? It's close to Christmas so I'm going with Elf.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Bungee jumped into the South Pacific.
Teach, Learn, Share
We have a large organic garden and chickens. We source most of our meat locally (not our chickens) and I enjoy preparing fresh food to share. We have three kayaks and enjoy spending time on the a variety of bodies of water in the area, watching wildlife, and simply unplugging. Happy to do that with others. Especially newbies.
What I Can Share With Hosts
A winning personality (or so my mother tells me)...
My Interests
Outdoors, gardening, reading, laughing (a lot), kayaking, camping, cooking, short films, and good beer. Wine's pretty nice, too.
