One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed Machu Picchu, saw some alpacas, drank a good beer, hugged my sister, rang in 2015.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a life of no electricity, no running water, spiders and other creepy things, generous neighbors,exploration, conversations in the very confusing bantu language of Chichewa, an angelic and adorable pooch named Pangono, solar charging, chill tunes, a chill porch, homemade wine, two crazy cats named Rice&Beans, food cooked over an open fire, a bucket bath in a bamboo hideaway, the rainforest, your own personal parade of insanely curious children...
