CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Torn between being a city kid and a bush man. I Love nothing more than living in a busy cool city with tons of friends, good times, going out to gigs and dinners, hanging out, drinking a little bit, sharing ideas, thoughts, books, movies, music and all the things I think make us as humans so amazingly special.
At the same time I am crazy in love with the ocean, mountains and above all, rivers. I try to spend a fairly ballance amount of time out kayaking and skiing. I kinda think it's a chance not only to have a great time doing some of the things I love the most, but also gives me a chance to recharge and remember some of the most important things out there are some of the simplest. Just how important it is that we look after what we have been given and how conected every thing really is.
hope that gives you some idea, I'm never really good at keeping inside the box with these things. I guess that would count a little for my personal philosophy too...

PHILOSOPHY

hmmm, think i have said enough about this already....

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have surfed a few couches and had a few people surf my couch. Traveling right now so more on the suring side but looking forward to having a couch to host again soon!!!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am still pretty fresh to CS but I think it's becoming one of my favourite parts of traveling!! I have yet to meet a single person through CS I have not found to be amazing and very unique as well as really enjoying each and every one. I am super stoked to be part of some thing so cool. I see it as really being a great step into a better world.

Interests

Almost any thing some one takes time and effort to make well and beautifully. Be it a book, poem, movie, wine, coffee, meal, album, kayak, ski, what ever. Along with that getting out and enjoying life. Being outside some where nice, Kayaking and skiing stand out for me but also spending time with people I care about and meeting new people. Anything new really, I will try almost anything once. I kinda think we are here to experience as much as we can and grow from what we learn.
