I noticed there weren't many people in the Owens Valley on the all, so a few years ago I thought I'd offer my spot for travelers in the summer. It was a blast, and so many great people stayed with me, many of them became lifelong friends. I stopped hosting for about 3 years during covid, but recently started hosting again.

Folk, singer/songwriter, indy rock... anything that is good. I love Wes Anderson films, but anything that is well written is worth watching. For books... there are just too many to list here. I read a lot.
