I spend as much time as I can traveling. I enjoy talking about the future of the planet re. climate change and energy.
I spend an unreasonable amount of time experimenting in the kitchen, but I equally enjoy just eating food.
Climbing, cycling, and running are the sports I practice most, but I love trying new things!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

With great regret I paid for the couchsurfing membership this year, it completely goes against everything I used to love couchsurfing for, but hopefully through collective action we can remove the fees and go back to a community based model open for all

Great addition to traveling.
Its nice to have new people at my house every so often.
