I'm too curious for my own good! It keeps getting me into trouble - endless education, madly itchy feet. I love to visit new places, meet new people, and learn new things.

It's definitely more fun to meet locals when you're traveling!

Algo increíble que he hecho

I met a group of buskers one day, got to talking with them, and when they found out I play harp, they invited me to join them for a gig later that evening. So I played a tiny concert with these incredible people (Pedalfolk) completely on the fly!

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Learning is my favorite activity, and I love talking to people about something they're very interested in. I also love to teach people about anything I'm familiar with. I'm comfortable teaching people about linguistics (if you're curious!) and chemistry/biology, as well as a host of random things.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I can cook good food, and I enjoy doing it! It's not gourmet or anything, but it's good. I'm also usually pretty good for conversation, but I'm tragically monolingual.
