About Me

Hello! I'm Danny, a wandering traveller.

One day at work, I thought to myself, "what the heck am I doing with my life?!" This thought quickly prompted a resignation from the corporate world.

Now, I'm on the road pursuing personal projects and spending time where it really matters.

I love to learn about the people and world around me.
I enjoy listening to peoples' stories and diving deep into conversations of various topics.

People would describe me as a soft-spoken and tidy individual.
Additionally, I am a (self-proclaimed) great cook and general handyman for the most miscellaneous tasks you could think of. Need someone to get a job done? Call me!

Through CS, I hope to make new connections with genuine people and hear your wonderful stories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I love to do trail runs.
My PR is 2.5 hours on a 19 km length, 900 m elevation trail.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to become a master of Excel.
On a less corporate note, I've acquired a specific set of skills and perhaps one of them will come in handy one day.
I could teach you how to identify different types of bears and how to deal with each of them in a potential confrontation!

Learn: I'm learning to play Hymn to Freedom by Oscar Peterson on the piano.

Share: One of my favourite things to do is sharing food over great conversations.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a (self-proclaimed) great cook in the kitchen.
I'm also a (self-proclaimed) marvelous janitor with great attention to detail.
More than anything, I'm a great listener and friendly-individual who loves learning about people and the world around me.
