CURRENT MISSION

To change make farming in the USA sustainable.

ABOUT ME

I love to surf, climb trees, backpack, teach, read, meditate.

I lived as a monk for 3 years, in ashrams in India and the Nederlands. I've been a sailor on schooner in Hawaii, director of the David Lynch Foundation in Japan, and for the last 6 years, I've roamed around the USA in a mobile greenhouse, teaching sustainable agriculture.

Hopefully you're reading this because we'll soon be meeting and creating new legends together in some great place in the world. Huzzah!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that Couchsurfing is a real way to combat terrorism and ignorance, and that in sharing space and ourselves, the world becomes the peaceful home we all desire, even if just for a moment.
