About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get out to Kelowna, BC by September 2016 in order to study being a RV Technician.

ABOUT ME

In April I quit all my (3) jobs and sold (mostly) all my possessions. I am currently working at a campground in Nova Scotia and living in my 1976 Boler camper, which I am proud to say I renovated myself. In trying to figure out my next move in life I came across a program to become a Recreational Vehicle Technician and this appeals to me greatly. Seeing that it's July and the program starts in Sepetember I am using every venue possible to try and find a place to stay for 7 months. I am not looking to stay in someone's house but if you have a backyard where I could park my little 13ft camper that would be ideal.

I am spontaneous, adventurous, curious, thoughtful, compassionate (to a fault), organized, creative, sarcastic, and a clean and considerate house-guest. Lover of music, the arts and good food. I get excited about new things and new people.

PHILOSOPHY

Do it now!! Don't wait until you're retired....you may not make it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I don't have the facilities to host yet but when I do I will.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

so far I have only used couchsurfing once, in New Orleans, but had the most amazing experience. I was welcomed with open arms and shown new experiences, which I am always up for.

Interests

I love the old and kitchy and exploring abandoned spaces. I love to find the unknown or unexplored. I am a photographer/mixed-media artist and travel is the best food for my creativity. I currently spend a lot of time working on my art and scheming for new ways to live a life of extended travel. I love to be outdoors, hiking and swimming (not so big on overcrowded beaches) but when I'm in a city I'm an avid second hand 'browser' ( I don't often buy because my lifestyle doesn't permit owning a bunch of things)
