I'm a bit of a wandering post-grad at the moment! I can be a bit shy at first, but it doesn't take too long to come out of my shell. I like to think I'm open minded, and I'm trying to be a bit more of a "yes man" as a result.

From the Toronto area in Ontario, Canada.

Studied political science at Western University. Worked one year as a product analyst, which is why I was able to save up and travel as I am doing now :)

I think I live a healthy lifestyle for the most part. I used to be an amateur boxer, but I do like to balance between physical activity, arts and culture, and socializing more now.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For budget accommodations, and to meet new and interesting folks!

Music, Movies, and Books

I'd say I scratch the surface of many genres: hip-hop/R&B, indie rock/rock/alternative, bit of electronic/pop/chill-step, and a fair bit of Top 40. VERY select few country songs.

I love any kind of film/TV that's either thought provoking, action-packed, or funny: Sicario, Westworld, Silver Linings Playbook, Black Mirror, Good Will Hunting, Forrest Gump... I guess it's quite a variety!

My favourite books are usually philosophical, or have a bit of romance, or have a coming-of-age dynamic: Fifteen Dogs by Andre Alexis, Canada by Richard Ford, or Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison... to name a few.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Worked a few 9-5 jobs without blowing my head off.
