Overview
About Me
I worked on a community farm for a year as an apprentice. I left home and now I'm working and playing it by ear, constantly striving to improve myself and purse new creative endeavors and new friendships.
I smoke but absolutely never in the house and definitely not around people that aren't comfortable with it.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm living life by the seat of my pants so I'm always looking for a place to stay and awesome new people to talk to.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I heard the infamous "hawk scream" sound effect in person, coming from a wild hawk.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach and share about nearly anything involving sustainable agriculture- the food industry, urban gardening, vermicomposting, aquaponics, land management, water harvesting.
I would like to learn languages and practical skills (plumbing, mechanical work, construction- I'm always willing to help, especially if i'm learning) as well as banjo. I reaaaaaally wanna learn how to play the banjo.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Good music, good food, and good fires. I'm a half decent cook and skilled at campcraft.
