About Me

Hi! My name is Alex and I recently finished my pure and applied sciences degree in Montreal and will be taking a year off to travel and pursue my music career! I am the singer and guitarist in a reggae/dub/rock band called FoOlish which formed over a year ago. I pride myself in being adventurous and willing to try new things as well. I'm really looking forward to meeting new and interesting people and exploring as much as I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always found travelling to be one of the most rewarding experiences in life, and being a student, I unfortunately haven't had the money to travel... Until I found this site!

Interests

All my life I've been a musical person and I am rarely seen without my guitar nearby... I've been in bands of every genre including jazz, grunge, reggae, and bossa nova and I enjoy listening as much as playing. I am also a very active person, I recently began martial arts, yoga, and body building in an effort to improve my way of living and so far it is working out well (pun intended)! I also have a strong love for the outdoors and have recently discovered the joy of gardening from my girlfriend and believe that strength comes from the mind as much as it does from the body.
