I’m visiting a friend in Germany for the next two weeks. We spontaneously bought tickets to Dublin, and are now looking for a place to sleep.

When given the choice, I sit at the kids table and would rather play a game of tag than make small talk. That said, I am always looking for connection: conversation with people whose light encourages mine to meet theirs and energize us both.

I am a former long distance runner (50k was my favorite distance) and a current roller derby player. I went to school to be a teacher and a diesel mechanic, but now I’m writing children’s books and possible longer fiction.

I’m a preferential vegetarian, but will eat just about whatever is laid in front of me.

教，学，和分享

I know how to make delicious basic bread, homemade caramel, fried chicken, and carrot cake. I can sometimes make pasta and flour tortillas.

I would be happy to teach you how to make simple balloon animals/hats, low level juggling, and two card tricks.

Hopefully enough that we both feel like we got the better end of the deal.
