Hey! I'm an entrepreneur originally from Toronto, Canada currently traveling and working remotely on a start-up. In my free time I try to go outdoors as much as possible and love to ski/hike/rock climbing.

I've backpacked through 27 countries to date in Europe, South East Asia and Central America and of course North America. I also lived in China for 9 months to work and study.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love experiencing local culture and learning from people that live in different places and also have an international perspective. Couchsurfing is the best way to actually experience living someone where new without having to stay in one location for a few month. I usually do a combination of hostels, host families, staying with friends and now couchsurfing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent 9 month living in China. During that time I spent a few weeks traveling alone in the South of China, in remote places. I was the first white/foreign person that school kids outside of Xi'an in a remote, rural village have ever met and created an English curriculum for them while I lived in a small hut for "teachers" for a week.
