About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Taking to the skies to find the next great opponent

ABOUT ME

Easily the most Lovable scruffy, guitar swinging rogue you'll ever meet.

Armed with only my wits, inadherence to gravity, and the power of Rock everlasting, I will storm into your world a one man army of rage and sexiness to show you the meaning of Epic living.

PHILOSOPHY

The meaning of life?
Let me tell you a story...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm a huge fan of the idea of the Couchsurfing University, wherein people travel around and trade knowledge with hosts around the world. So I make a point of teaching something lifechanging and learning something awesome from every host I stay with.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been surfing around Canada, Australia and the USA for a few years now.
