About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Have a blast

ABOUT ME

I am a 25 year old guy working in Toronto after moving here from the West Coast.

In the past I've traveled to China, done a cycling trip across America where I CS, met a ton of people and loved every minute of it. I am convinced traveling is the best way to become happy in your life.

I love meeting new people and sharing experiences. I am a talker and enjoy a good debate or anything to do with conversation.

I love food and love to cook (not sure why). I enjoy just chilling with friends hanging out and having a couple beers.

I like to strum the old guitar and fancy a good Neil Young or Tom Petty tune for sure.

PHILOSOPHY

I live to have fun. I have awesome friends and a great family. I feel like I just want to keep things fresh and traveling is the best way to do that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have couch surfed a bit. Most recently on my cycling trip through the U.S. I surfed with my friends account and we had a blast. It was great to meet locals in the city and have a free place to stay. I can now host since I am home and would love to show people around.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

AWESOME, everyone I have met couchsurfing is super cool. From Boise ID, to Colorado CS meetup to Baton Rouge LA.

Interests

Sports, I used to row for UVIC. But I love almost anything sport related, hockey, football, running, cycling swimming, you name it.

I like to try and play my guitar, converse go out drinking with friends to pubs and just doing anything fun. I'm pretty much down to try anything and think that life is better that way.

Music, Movies, and Books

Yes love them, Movies are great but books are similar to movies except better! More detail and they don't end so fast. Music is also a hug part of my life. I can play a little bit of guitar and love Tom Petty, Lynard Skynard, Niel Young some NA classics as well as jazzy guitar and all sorts. Oh and I seem to really like Gaelic music :) So I'd love to go to Ireland.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've cycled across U.S. from Victoria B.C. to New Orleans Lousiana AMAZING trip.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to learn more about religions and peoples. I have grown up in a closed box on a very "sheltered" island in Canada. It's a lovely place with great mountains and beautiful ocean. But I would love to learn more about life and what it means to others. In the share aspect I promise to be enthusiastic and to think critically and engage others I meet.
