FYI: I don't always long into my profile.. But all my requests are sent straight to my phone :)

ABOUT ME

I'm a fairly laid back and social person, I love to go on adventures, exchange stories, and enjoy what I can in life!! To sum it up I just like to have fun!

I travel often for work and pleasure and try to maintain a busy schedule. I'm very involved in my local music scene and have worn many hats within it. Whether it was working, playing, promoting, attending or volunteering, I feel it's very important to support local music.

Personally I have fronted four Metal bands within my city. With the current being: Tessirura

Although my tastes gear more towards Metal... I enjoy many genres of music such as classical, rock, industrial, folk, and indie, etc...

I also tend to get a little anxious and shy at times but it often passes quickly.

PHILOSOPHY

When I was younger I had seen a phrase written on a wall at party that had struck me in such a way I never forgot it. "Real eyes realize real lies"
May sound stupid, but it spoke to me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Before i joined this website I had only ever couch-surfed once and it was in Edmonton. Now I must say it's quite enjoyable!! The people I have stayed with and those who have stayed with me are some of the most amazing people I have ever had the opportunity to meet!! Still pretty new to the whole thing but plan to keep on doing it!!

Interests

Although staying busy is very important, I still believe in taking time for ones self.
When not working, playing, or attending a show I often go to support local & touring bands. I also enjoy spending time with those I love and try to make that a priority.

I love to collaborate and create. Wrapping myself in art through drawing, painting, or writing (so if you're up for it maybe we can collaborate on something).

When it comes to adventures i love to be outdoors. I don't really care what I'm doing as long as the company is good. But like everyone I have my preferences such as: bicycling, camping, fishing, hiking, and swimming...

Generally I'm up for almost anything. But, when laziness settles in... time is spent playing video games, watching movies/cartoons, reading or just lying in the sun.

Always eager to try new recipes and pass on those already learned.
