Both an optimist and a cynic. Work in education. Fascinated by collective human potential and organizational governance (and believe there's a multitude of other ways to distribute power in groups than the top down triangle model). Love delving into complexity and nuance - the world is fascinating - and it seems the more I learn the less I know! Former Social Studies/History Teacher. Gardener. Radical Historian. Rambler (both in thought and travel). Dancer (especially at weddings). Book Lover. Co-op Geek. Love high-fives, yummy food, a delicious cocktail, a beautiful and invigorating hike and moments of awe.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I've had great experiences with CS and hope to continue to do so. Love making new connections, love hosting and have loved surfing.

兴趣

Figuring it out as I go.

Etymology (history of words!). Stories. Rivers. Mountains. Beaches. Good food + drink. Dungeons and dragons. Laughter with friends. Cooking. Hiking. Gardening. Basketball + soccer/futbol. Connective moments in community and showing up for my family.

Love watching bugs in the garden....witnessing young people have aha! moments....diving into the murky depths of the past (personal, family, collective) as a way to move towards justice and healing (some say history repeats itself but does it have to??)...and I'm fascinated by cooperatives and their potential for humans - current system of choice - sociocracy.
