CURRENT MISSION

To meet and greet as many people as possible!

ABOUT ME

This could easily become a novel. The story starts at the end of summer in 2003 when 3 boys on the brink of adulthood were suddenly and randomly paired up as roomates at the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology in Calgary, Alberta. A threeway bromance then blossomed into an all out friendship that has continued to this day. We currently reside in a spacious 5 bedroom house in NW Calgary. The original 3 still live there, Anders, Bobby and myself (Mike), as well as the newest addition Aaron. We're all extremely social individuals who love meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

I feel like we're all of the same mindset. Get the majority of your living done while you're young. Live life to the fullest and experience as much as possible while you still can. Traveling isn't just about where you go and what you see, it's about who you meet so logically the next best thing to traveling is having travelers come to you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couches, spare rooms and friends are available

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We've hosted many Couchsurfers so far and 1 hitchhiker with absolutely no regrets. I can't say enough positive things about the whole Couchsurfing community, this is probably the greatest true global networking site out there and look forward to use it in a surfing way. We've made some great friends so far and hope that trend continues...

Music, Movies, and Books

TV:
Futurama, first and foremost. I'm pretty sure everyone in the house can replay multiple episodes in our own minds. Kinda scary, I know.
Seinfeld reruns. The Soup Nazi episode is on TV at least once a month and it's always good.

Sports, goes without saying really.

Music:
I'm pretty sure we're home to one of the largest music libraries in Western Canada. We're all open when it comes to music and can appreciate any genre. Bands of note include Crystal Method, 311, Bob Marley, Holy Fuck, Wintersleep and so on. Seriously, it goes on forever.

Books: a vast library between us...
