CURRENT MISSION

I am about to travel through Iceland and Europe and looking forward to meeting people who are excited about their towns and travel.

ABOUT ME

"They say the smart dog obeys but the smarter dog knows when to disobey."
I am from California where I work as a substitute teacher and as a teaching artist for an art museum. I like biking around town, photography, watching good movies with good friends, and creative writing.

PHILOSOPHY

The drive is determinedly a drive.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

2 AM noctiluca

Teach, Learn, Share

Keen attention to dailiness.

I'm looking forward to hearing about towns, cities, and countries from the perspective of the people who live and work in them. Recommendations for swimming spots, hikes, and good food are much appreciated. I like learning about local history too.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to trade music, movie, and reading recommendations. I know a thing or two about plants and animals and am hoping to volunteer for some gardens via workaway where I will hopefully expand that knowledge.
