I am 27 years old from Vancouver Canada. I've never traveled overseas, but I am an avid road tripper been all around Western North America. I currently work in retail sales, and am the play by play announcer for a local hockey team.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I plan on travelling to Europe this September mainly in Iceland. Dates are either Sept 12-19 or October 1st to Oct 8th. Prefer to visit in Sept for weather reasons. I will be joining my brother and some of our friends in Germany for a road trip through Bavaria, Austria, and Slovenia in late September. I was going to visit Iceland as a solo trip but i'm noticing that if I want to spend more than 5 days in Iceland it will cost over $2,000 CAD or $1600 USD. Mainly because of the cost of Fuel 2.81 a Liter .... or .... ummm... I can't figure it out you do the math. Basically filling a Corolla is like $90 US or something lol. Lodging is equally as expensive but I'm willing to stay anywhere as long as it provides a hot shower. I would prefer to travel the ring road or atleast hit up the entire South Coast. Once again prefered dates are Sept 12-19. I haven't booked my flight yet though.

Music, Movies, and Books

Anything but Country for Music. I don't fancy new rap/hip-hop. Everything else is OK with me. If I timed my trip during the Iceland Summer Solstice festival I absolutely would attend.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've gone on numerous solo trips in my life but one group trip with two friends was quite life changing for me about 4 years ago. It really got my travel juices going. I went all through the Western United States and I couldn't believe the changes in landscape and geography along the way, its what im most excited to see in Iceland.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help with driving and I have an obscure talent at talking to strangers. I manage to somehow find common ground with new people, leading to new adventures. I am open to learning new cultures and languages although I only know basic Spanish and basic Korean commands.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Driving costs, food costs, lodging costs and that i'm open to almost anything.
