Like meeting people, exploring places, good conversation, learning, discovering, growing.
Music, Movies, and Books
Fairly eclectic taste in music, from 60s psychedelia to electronica, plus classical. Authors: so many, but a sampling would be Hermann Hesse, Charles Eisenstein, Jay Griffiths, Bernard Moitessier, Charles Bukowski, William Burroughs, Aldous Huxley, Dieter Duhm.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Two wonderful months spent hiking from the Atlantic to the Med along the Spanish Pyrenees. Crossed the Atlantic by sailboat 3 times.
Teach, Learn, Share
Happy to teach cooking and sailing, if either interests you.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I can cook, and enjoy doing so. Vegetarian these days, but I learned to cook classic French cuisine so can work with meat and fish too. Reciprocal sailing on my boat (currently in the Pacific) Hopefully good company.
My Interests
Sailing, hiking, reading, cooking, good conversation, spirituality, travelling off the beaten track.
