About the host
Hosted by Gary Moorehead
Gary has lived in Afghanistan, Oxford, and Montreal, but is a New England native and, for the past decade, has lived in the Boston area. He directs a Boston-Area non-profit that provides temporary lodging, practical support, friendship, and advocacy for documented asylum seekers and refugees who are seeking to rebuild their lives in the area.
Gary loves the Maine Coast. His parents built the cabin in 1970, when Gary was a young boy, and, despite being over 85, they still typically visit once each summer.
Over the years, the cabin has been, for Gary, a consistent place he has come to find respite and to offer hospitality, to encounter quiet wonder and to engage in focused work, and to take time for contemplation and to welcome the surprise of adventure. He hopes that others who visit the cabin will be both enlivened and refreshed in hope and wonder.
Gary is often juggling multiple plates, but in his spare time, he likes a good read, woodworking, studying history, pondering the nature of reality and the way of neighborly love, praying, and making room for meals shared with both friends and strangers. He is a fan of all things written by J.R.R. Tolkien, old architecture, hand-made artifacts, baba ghanoush, cream of buckwheat, mercy, and the music of Ralph Vaughn Williams.
