About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Raising a 2 year old (Ahhh!). Hope to travel again soon.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything in moderation. Experience it all. Don't believe it until you see it. Conquer your fears. Always strive towards self-improvement. Let your mind be open to all possibilities. I am the eggman, they are the eggmen, I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always enjoyed travelling and meeting other travellers. The sharing of unique experiences is incredibly valuable I find.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Trekking the Himalayas (twice, once through Thorung La Pass).
Ran a Marathon.
Am a Dad.
Technically that's 3 amazing things.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach guitar, and maybe a little bit of piano and music theory.
I would love to learn any instrument at all.
Also, would like to learn to speak french, (and maybe one day spanish) fluently.
I like to learn anything though, from cooking, to woodworking, to photography...

What I Can Share with Hosts

Not much at the moment. Having an 18 month old son means no strange visitors for at least a little while.

Countries I’ve Visited

Cambodia, Canada, Colombia, Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, India, Ireland, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Nepal, Philippines, Switzerland, Thailand, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

Canada, Nepal
