I'm a positive, cheerful, action-oriented creative eco-entrepreneur. I'm balancing my need to explore the world with my need to become more grounded in my local community.

Right now, I'm focusing on developing my skills as a farmer and land manager. I try to balance this work with being present and grateful.

PHILOSOPHY
Best summarized as radical applied ecology. I am nature, working. I push far beyond the boundaries of my comfort zone to pursue new creative endeavours.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've hosted couch surfers in Fiji, but recently haven't had the opportunity to play the host role. I look forward to having a couch someday soon. Right now, I'm couch surfing to explore Colorado and Kansas in March 2016, before getting back to my farming life in Atlantic Canada.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Through couchsurfing, I've met some incredible individuals in Fiji; people who threw themselves into 'our' garden and cleared jungle and helped me to plant a bounty of perennial goodness. I live in sincere thanks for those that offer themselves so freely. I've enjoyed the hospitality of a fine friend in the Blue Mountains of Australia. I look forward to meeting more creative, inspiring and generous people through this network.
