CURRENT MISSION

Find some hot springs to sooth my aching muscles in

ABOUT ME

I'll probably talk to you on the street. Then ask you to dance.

PHILOSOPHY

Be civil, not boring.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met up with fellow couch surfers once in Seattle. They showed me a sweet bar and had the best Mexican food.

Interests

Cities. I really like thinking about cities, how they (dis)function, walking (or biking) around cities, poking around and taking pictures of the less glamourous aspects. But equally as greatly as being surrounded by endless people, I love being completely isolated in the wild, especially the West Coast of BC.

Dance parties, funk music! If your party ain't bumpin' you're doing it wrong. Even 3 people can have wicked kitchen dance parties. Poor journalism hurts me inside.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Went to Ocean Falls, a ghost town on BC's central coast and shot 16 mm film with two friends of mine this summer.

Every moment on Haida Gwaii. It's such a wild place. The entire BC coast is fantastic.

Attending a punk bachelorette party in Winnipeg where we biked around while drinking cheap beer, touched Louis Riel's over sized penis, cursed cops, and overall were debaucherous.

If Winnipeg and BC aren't exotic enough for you, when I was with my sister in Vietnam we met the most interesting 18 year old Australian guy who called himself Frog. He was walking from Hanoi to Laos. Barefoot. We had rad Pho.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can show you the basics of photography and talk your ear off about geography and planning related things.
