ABOUT ME

Well, I'm a philosophy graduate from Calvin College in Grand Rapids Michigan but I'm Canadian through and through! I love to learn. I love all sorts of music and although I am picky about my beer, I don't demand the same of my guests :) I love to cook, explore, share anecdotes, and talk over good food and excellent booze. If you want to know more, I'm on facebook, or just ask! I'm pretty easy-going!

PHILOSOPHY

Aristotle can compel you to do anything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hitchhiked through Scotland, the Orkneys and parts of France and Germany, meeting some of the coolest and most unique people of my life. A gaelic fisherman, a 50-something raver, a drummer who toured with Journey, a German punk-rocker and a restorer and racer of classic Jaguars. So amazing.
