    Description

    My dad, brother and I share this house, but as I do research abroad, I'm only occasionally there - so my mom Shannan is the one likely to get in touch with you if you message. My dad is a retired chemistry professor - loves motorcycles and chatting about history. I do research in biopsychology and have come and gone a lot over the years traveling and living overseas in places like New Zealand and Germany. My brother is an artist and we are all learning to grow native plants and vegetables on our 5 acres farm. So, if you like to be outdoors and grow flowers and vegetables, but still be close to all that Ann Arbor, MI has to offer, come and help us out and learn more about language and culture, as we also learn.
