CURRENT MISSION

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive & well preserved body. But rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other, body used up, worn out & screaming, "What a ride!"

ABOUT ME

So a few years has went by since I was super active on couchsurfing with my rock star roommates from 29 Upper Hillsborough.

I have recently moved to Ottawa. Being new to the city, I was hoping to cash in some couch-karma, and perhaps find a few cool, likeminded folks to go for a coffee or beer with (with the long term intent of potentially become a leech on your group of friends).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In the past we hosted almost every week, each summer. I've been pretty dormant for two years now, living with a roommate who was uncomfortable with couchsurfing.

Nonetheless, I've met good friends even in the same town through Couchsurfing - I hope to maybe do the same in Ottawa.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We've met some really great friends through couchsurfing!

Interests

I love squash, used to play lots of rugby and coached for five years, and a life goal of mind is to learn to curl.

I dig discussions and debates and learning new perspectives on common experiences from folks.

Settlers of Catan and most card games are what you are supposed to do/play on snowy and rainy days.

Drinks, visiting, and laughs are number one. Toss in a great themed costumes, or ridiculous tasks/races and life becomes pretty solid.

Live music is a favourite. I super need to find friends to drag out to hear East coast bands with me when they roll through.

Dinner parties with tasty grub and drink? Nomnomnom.

Binge watching movies or tv the day after? Best part.

So that's my selfish list of favourite things. I bet I like some of the stuff you and your friends do too!
