“So, like, what do you DO?” I try to live a life filled with creativity, storytelling, and meaningful connections. I make stuff like movies and songs and plays. I also like doing improv comedy, and play Dungeons & Dragons and other games with friends. Always working on unlearning toxic masculinity—a topic I enjoy discussing too! Self-expression, integrity, and gratitude are very important to me.

I want to travel more! In the past few years I’ve done a bunch of road trips with friends through the USA and Canada, 2 months backpacking in British Columbia, and 6 weeks backpacking across Europe. In October 2019, I had a fantastic short trip in Japan—already can’t wait to go back.

*June 2022 update: I may be able to start hosting folks soon, though you would definitely need to be fully vaccinated and OK with a busy shared space as I have 2 roommates as well in our 3-bedroom apartment in downtown Toronto. Feel free to reach out!

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I want to be able to stay around in new cities and meet interesting people. The best way to understand someone is to see how they live, and how it's different from the way you live!

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

I have an English degree and lots of experience as a copy editor. I can provide feedback or help with a variety of writing styles, whether academic, journalistic, creative, etc.

I really like having meaningful conversations, and it almost doesn't really matter what we're talking about. I have seen a lot of movies, though. My best party trick is that I can name the year most movies were made, so feel free to quiz me on that.

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

Let me know if there's any way I can share my writing, filmmaking, photography, or improv skills with you, but really if I'm travelling it's because I'd love to learn from you about your way of life! Plus, I can offer good (I hope) cooking, cleaning up after myself, and so on :)
