I am an obsessive reader, gardener, and painter with a restlessness that propels me to wander....My community consists of undocumented and marginalized migrants in the area, and my local contacts consist of small scale organic farmers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am not on couch surfing to hook up, to use it as a substitute dating app, or as some alternative to monogamy. Please DO NOT contact me if motivated by any of these. I am on this site because my home is open to fellow travellers who are genuinely interested in visiting this area. I found myself in a house with extra bedrooms and living on a property that is far too large... Guests are welcome to fill the spaces...spare bedroom, unused living room, loft above the shed, hammock on the porch, camping in the back field...

What I Can Share with Hosts

A private room and/or living room with a shared kitchen & bathroom. House is surrounded by fields with no bus routes or public transportation. Not much happening in town, so entertainment lies in the 5 forested conservation areas within a 15 minute drive. I can offer info about the area (from a social justice/ environmental perspective), conversation or quiet, books, plenty of tea, and home cooked meals.
