"It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye." -Saint-Exupéry

I've spent my life learning to listen... I'm still learning. I work at the intersection of plants and people. I love gathering folks together and serving tea, as a way of creating space for all kinds of magic to unfold.

I love storytelling, film, & photography. I dabble in the world of cryptocurrency, the new frontier of free speech. I'm @lovejoy on the latest and greatest experiment at steemit.com :)

I've spent some many years on the ocean, and love to sail... I've been landlocked in Minnesota for 8 years now since moving back to my home state, and I'm missing the ocean something fierce. Do you sail? Do you have access to a sailboat? ;)

Iceland has long inspired me. Maybe someday I'll be a fearless poetician like your own incomparable Birgitta Jónsdóttir. Maybe I'll just listen, and hear what the land of fire and ice has in store for me.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I love to travel and make new friends, and to share hospitality here at my home.
