Hey, my name is Jake.

I'm constantly learning and gaining knowledge. My goal is to learn everything I can and share what I've learned with others.

I eat a vegan diet and love to try new things whenever possible. I am a baker and a theoretical cook.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people, share and gain knowledge and experiences and learn about the world around me. :)

I'm particularly interested in new or alternative ways of life and living, from trade and skill economies to home design.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walked on a massive fallen tree 10ft above the forest floor.

Teach, Learn, Share

I play the guitar and keyboard somewhat so we can jam. I used to play bass, keyboard and drums in some bands but keep in mind that I did so from a punk mindset so I'm probably terrible.

I love cooking but prefer not to be in charge. but I'll bake you cookies or a pie!

I'm interested in learning about more or less anything.

What I Can Share with Hosts
