ABOUT ME

I am willing to host almost all the time, even on short notice. However, I am generally a very busy person. This means that my surfers need to be somewhat self-reliant because I will likely not have a lot of free time to spend with them.

I am very friendly, very excitable and adventurous.

I really appreciate people who have expertise on a specific subject.

I am entrepreneurial. I run my own business and have had a knack for working on my own since a young age. Prior to my online business, I used to be a tennis coach. At the age of 20 I had worked up to the club pro at my local tennis club and ran my own summer tennis camp.

I enjoy playing sports. My main sport is tennis. I really like hiking and camping as well. I'm also into rock climbing, snowboarding, basketball, ping pong/table tennis, football and vollyeball.

My favourite video game is Grand Theft Auto.

I am scared of heights. Whenever I look over a balcony while in a tall apartment building my knees begin to feel weak.

As for food, I enjoy almost all cuisines from around the globe. Toronto is the best city in the world when it comes to good food. You can find the best of everything here.

I like people who are peaceful.

PHILOSOPHY

If you respect someone, you will get their respect in return 100% of the time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I HAVE A NICE AND CLEAN PULL-OUT COUCH AVAILABLE FOR ALL COUCHSURFERS!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have always enjoyed the experience of seeing the world by staying with friends and family who live in the place I am visiting. Couch surfing is a natural extension of that urge. I think everyone on this site has the same idea about wanting to explore the world while staying out of the tourist traps. This is how I view my own desire to travel as well. I have had amazing experiences with fellow couch surfers.

Interests

I love my dog a lot, and I like people who have dogs and treat them well. I don't believe there is such thing is a bad dog, there are only bad owners who reinforce bad tendencies. My dog is definitely not an angel, but I put a lot of time and love into my relationship with her.

I also love taking pictures for their existential meaning.

Teach, Learn, Share

"Help who you can to make them feel better. However, never take on guilt for their ailments" - my grandma told me that once. It means to offer your support to those who are important to you but don't kill yourself in doing so, there is so much which is outside of your control.
