Hi! I live on south Whidbey Island about 4 miles from Langley and 3.5 miles from a beautiful beach. I live on a biodynamic farm (about 11 acres) with cows, turkeys, ducks, and chickens and a large garden. I am a renter and have been here for 15 years when the was first built. The owners also live on the property and are both Waldorf teachers. In the spring we usually get a few school groups camping on the land to work on farm projects and learn about Biodynamic techniques. I like to road bike, mountain bike, climb, run, hike, garden, play music, dance...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to consider hosting at my home on beautiful Whidbey.
And looking for fun travel opportunities and meeting interesting new people :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I attended a 14-day survival field course in and around Escalante and Boulder Mountain last May, one of the most beautiful places I know.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach rock climbing, survival skills, building skills, solar and electrical knowledge.
I am happy to learn anything.
I can share laughter, stories, a bike ride - on or off the trail, a nice trail run, playing music together...
