ABOUT ME

"On the quiet side, somewhat peculiar, a good companion in a weird sort of way."
"A man of many laughs."
A simple person with a love for life and exploration and story. Friend of creation and all its creatures, lover of the misfits and outcasts, appreciator of all the small good things in the world. Easy-going, open-minded, skinny, Canadian, sleeps well on strange couches.
