About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To do things that make me and those I love smile

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy going, friendly guy, with a sense of humour and a curiosity about the world. I have a wife and daughter who light up my life and I see the world as being full of exciting possibilities. The desire to live in many different places has been a strong current running through my live. So far I've lived on three continents, so I have quite a bit further to go.

I like to think about the way the world is headed, but in a pragmatic way, and without taking it all too seriously.

PHILOSOPHY

To live without regrets, relishing the small things and letting the big parts of life move and shift around me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Cycling across the U.S. we informally stayed with many kind hosts who offered us a place to stay on sight. I also had a great time WWOOFing in New Zealand a few years back.

Interests

I love cycling, maths, travelling, mountains, beautiful photography, and wandering through new cities. Reading takes up a good bit of my free time as does following professional cycling. I really enjoy good conversation and am currently studying Dutch as I will shortly be moving to the Netherlands.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cycled across the U.S. from coast to coast on a tandem. Hiking in New Zealand left me with a deep love for mountains. WWOOFed in New Zealand and learned a lot about how generous people can be.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have expertise in maths, computer programming, and anything to do with cycling. Ask me!
