About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be wary of tunnel vision.. Behold, the clouds!

ABOUT ME

Hello! I am a person, just like you, and I love to travel, just like you! We have so much in common! Finding the common points of intersection between people is one of the most stimulating activities I can think of and serves as the perfect antidote to all sorts of nasty habits. The more people I meet the more of a person I become.

PHILOSOPHY

Nowadays it seems like surviving is easy, yet living requires attention.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since I enjoyed surfing so much I would like to share those good vibes with anyone who comes to my town and host a surfer, when I'm not on the road myself.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed in Montreal and had one of the best trips of my life. I got to be in a jam session with local musicians and experience a side of the town I never would have been able to see without the help of CouchSurfers. It was life-altering.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
I like electronic music with basslines that make me want to wiggle my booty.
I like ambient music when I need to concentrate.
I like hip-hop when I want to exercise.
I like a sentimental track about the magic of the human condition (who doesn't?).
I also like the music that is made by everything you hear when you take your headphones off because its like secret music almost.

Movies:
The movie Clerks made me want to make a movie.
2001: A Space Odyssey

Books:

"What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it" -- Holden Caulfield
