I'm a writer and a professor in the Humanities. I travel a lot for research, and pleasure, and generally love meeting fun, smart and interesting people. Usually when I travel I'm quite busy with archives and conferences, so I won't bother you much, though am always up for a historical tour and sampling of the area's finest. As a host, I'm pretty similar, and am happy to give advice or even a tour depending on the day/time of the term you come. Also, I'm a non-smoker and a vegetarian, and so don't allow smoking in my house, or the cooking of meat (dairy and cheese are fine).

Traveling and meeting new people!

Centres d'intérêt

Well, my academic interests are generally covered above, but otherwise I really enjoy being active outdoors, whether at the beach, hiking in the mountains, swimming in a melting snowcap, fresh springs in the desert, etc. I enjoy lots of conversation, a fine drink and always, always a good show.

Lately, I’ve been focused on trying to use Bitcoin to decentralize History and truly make it and the Digital Humanities a shared public good.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

First time I saw the Judean mountains, the Dome of the Rock, the Colosseum in Rome, standing in Augustus' palace and swimming in the ruins of Herod's sea-covered pleasure palace in the Mediterranean. I'm constantly astounded by the lasting power of human existence. Also, honestly, I'm still a bit in awe every time I fly, haha. I love feeling like a Zarathustra floating through the clouds.
