About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find great hosts to provide information about their city

ABOUT ME

I am an easy-going gay guy who enjoys traveling, sightseeing, and meeting new people. I live by myself in the West End area of Vancouver - close to the beaches, parks, and central business district. I live in a one-bedroom apartment and I do massage in my apartment so it is sometimes difficult to have guests for more than 2 nights.

PHILOSOPHY

When I travel, I enjoy seeing some of the parks and gardens and meeting the local people. Time is too short to spend all the time in museums!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As a host and a traveler

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am a member of the Gay and Lesbian Hospitality Exchange, and previously a member of Servas. I have been able to host others and also to use Hospitality Clubs during my travels . I used to volunteer during the summer with Hostelling International at an Information Desk providing visitors with information about Vancouver and BC, and as someone who was born and lived all my life in Vancouver I can provide local information.

Interests

I grow orchids, enjoy travel, keep fit by going to the gym regularly, and spend far too much time on the computer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent an amazing time in the Italian Cinque Terre enjoying the sightseeing and great food.

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy learning about local customs, history, and tradition.
