About Me

CURRENT MISSION

arrive at my destination with calloused feet and a soft heart

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've was fortunate to experience some couch-surf action on my home turf when I lived in San Francisco, seeking to extend the favor in a style similar to that of all the excellent human beings that welcomed my traveling companions and me in from the chilly streets along my inaugural courchsurfing adventure in the winter of 2006.
Right now I am moving closer to a living arrangement that will allow me to offer more hospitality.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to make a paper snowflake, grow annual vegetables in the Sacramento Valley region of Northern California, and make pizza.

I can share tips on how to facilitate groups and experiential learning opportunities.

I would love to spend time with one (or more) another making artful things from simple, found materials and objects.

I would like to learn more about watercolor, digital image editing, and photography techniques and practice speaking new-to-me languages. I would also enjoy listening to your stories about how you have come to know yourself and how to be in the world thus far.
