Former world traveler, now retired at the tender age of 30something to a quiet retreat on the Western slope of Mt Abraham. I like all the crunchy stuff, gardening, yoga, skinny-dipping, backpacking blah blah blah. I'm kinda cynical but still believe strongly in kindness as a way of being.

I'm real sensitive and in touch with my emotions but I still like banging things with hammers and cutting down trees with chainsaws.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I live as a bit of a hermit and I like to hear news from the outside every so often. Bonus if you are a native French or Chinese speaker. I need practice to not slip back into the cursed monolingualism of white America.

教，学，和分享

Yes! I'm a great tour guide and booster for my home state especially if you're into all the foodie shit and swimming holes and hiking trails. And thrift stores and music.
