From Chicago, living in Belgium to go to university. I'm a musician and love to exercise creativity together with other people. I study culture, the environment, food/agriculture, and philosophy and love talking about these ideas. I am learning Spanish, but it's slow going. I love to cook - making things in general.

I like to think I'm optimistic.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I learned how to drive a manual transmission in the back woods of Maine, with a Mennonite maple syrup farmer, in a 30 year-old rusty dumptruck.

教，学，和分享

I can teach rock climbing, maybe English (I'll definitely practice with you if you need), and I'd love to learn some other languages. I'll share just about anything, information, my car, bike, food.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I can bring you something cool from somewhere else, share my knowledge about whatever you are curious about. Share costs if we go somewhere. I love to cook, so happy to contribute there!
