About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find beauty in the world and do my part to help others along the way

ABOUT ME

This is the hard bit. I am very thoughtful (as my profile picture would suggest) I love to dance, sing and create art. Art of most any kind. I once studied to be a pastor but then decided God didn't need me to preach to anyone. Instead i opted to bring a message of love and peace thru my music and art. I love to travel. Before I realized I had these talents I was quite an avid sportsman in my younger days. I played semi-pro basketball and in highschool I lettered in 6 different sports. I have acted in theatre productions as well as don't volunteer work in different countries. I love children and people who have vision.

PHILOSOPHY

Love, forgive, laugh alot and care for others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well in Canada I have hosted people even before I knew what couch surfers was. I was hosting a guy and he told me about couch surfers. I was like what a great idea!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Oh my, what a time it has been, Everyone that I have come into contact with has been just the best human beings in the world. I have surfed mainly in the UK with my first experience being with a grand chap by the name of Rupert in Brighton. One of the most memorable was with a Guy from Amsterdam named Dennis. What a wonderful man. His generosity will never be forgotten by me. I know stories are encouraged but, really I'd rather met you in person and tell you face to face. i am a better story teller in person. But like I said couch surfers has been nothing short of spectacular. really boosted my waning faith in mankind. thank you so much!

Interests

Music, motion pictures, theatre, art and comedy. I like some sports now, but really I think they are all overpaid.I love philosophy and history as well. I try to stay away from politics and religion. But both interest me.I love to cook, I did a post highschool culinary program and ever since I have been hooked. You definitely want me in your kitchen.

Music, Movies, and Books

Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill The Other Guys, Horrible Bosses (new classic)pretty much anything Tarintino.I am definitely a Kubric man. Music of most kinds. Anias Nin is the last author that really flipped my wig. Rolling stone, Q Magazine, Spin. i am sorta a music industry nerd. Florence and the Machine are really interesting me. Bloc Party. In my opinion Prince is a god.Hip-hop also rules my world. Mostly the classics but every now and then something new comes along and I get into it. Tyler the Creator is probably the most interesting thing to me since De La Soul.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Wow, I have seen some amazing things. In my travels I think the amazing thing was peoples generosity towards me even when we didn't speak the same language. I was once horribly lost on the transit in South Korea. An older Korean man looked at me and walked over. I pointed to my destination on the map. He took my hand and led me from train to train. He held my hand the whole time. we changed trains 3 times and the trip was probably over an hour. we never spoke a word.Once I was at the location he hugged me and just walked away!

Teach, Learn, Share

Well when I studied in the pastoral we also made it a point to study other religions. I find there to be very interesting cross sections in the human experience. I believe in vibrations moreso than ever before. And most of all history teaches more than anything else.
