About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To visit 100 countries. Currently 83.
Spend as much time as possible doing things im passionate about.

ABOUT ME

Adventurous, love exploring, easy going, up for anything!

My life has always revolved around sports. Its like a drug, if im not doing some form of outdoor activity or sport i start going trough withdrawls! Climbing is my main passion and i try to climb as much as i can during the summer months. But i also really enjoy hiking and camping and always find myself wandering off trail in search of something new and exciting. I am also addicted to traveling now and could talk about traveling stories all day everyday! If your an adventurous outdoorsy person im sure we will get along just fine!!

I put some photos up of my travels and adventures and things i enjoy doing. So if you want to know more about me just ask!

PHILOSOPHY

you can tell alot about people based on the way they treat animals.

value experiences not possessions.

There is no right or wrong, just popular opinion

Modern slaves are not in chains, they are in debt

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Ive met and hosted a few surfers in vancouver and shown them around my neighborhood ususally going on hikes in my area.

I can't host at the moment but...

-I can take people to a world class rock climbing area in Squamish to try anything from beginner fun to long big wall climbs.

- We can go to amazing river cliff jumping spots and secret swimming holes in the canyons near my house.

- We can canoe to small islands and beaches up the inlet near my house.

- I know lots of great hikes to!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i have surfed a few times and they have been awsome experiences. I surfed in lijiang in south west china and in saporro japan. On my last trip i surfed in Bangladesh, Malaysia, Afghanistan, and Pakistan! They all were great experiences and really made my trip more special and memorable. I only regret not surfing more along the way as my hosts were so hospitible and only to eager to show me around town and take me on little random adventures. i have shown a few people around in my city and it has also been really great.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveling the KKH From western china through nothern pakistan. Trekking In the hindu kush and the himalaya was incredible, as well as spending time with the kalasha hill tribe in north west pakistan. Traveling in the north of pakistan was simply amazing for me!

Backpacking Afghanistan was probably the craziest thing I have done but every second was awesome and i met some incredible people.

Building a camper van and traveling around New Zealand and Australia for a year

Camping around the world!

Teach, Learn, Share
