CURRENT MISSION

I'm out to have a good time

ABOUT ME

I'm a dude who's in his early twenties. I've had a pretty good life so far. I played baseball for years, won my province's championships. I've skied quite a bit in Eastern Canada. I was born in the city, moved to the suburbs. Did my B.A. at the university of Toronto, and lived in residence for four years. Decided to go to law school from an early age after watching the film Liar Liar with Jim Carrey. Currently on exchange in Tromso, Norway in the arctic studying European Human Rights Conventions and Indigenous People's Rights, and have a thwack of free-time to travel.

PHILOSOPHY

I once thought I'd be a quick-witted, mysterious millionaire, now I'll settle to make ends meet and be thought of as a nice guy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By trying to utilize this resource in order to make my first trip in Europe affordable and enjoyable in a way that I believe a hotel or hostel would not. I feel that if I'm allowed to stay in someone's home I'll have an opportunity to find a taproot into a given community.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Haven't really had any official ones, but I've crashed on a couch or two.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once hit a home-run over the fence right after eating an enormous hamburger, when my coach tried to dissuade me from eating it.

The place now known as Canada has had a variety of names over the years. In 1791 it consisted of the two provinces of Upper and Lower Canada (though Upper Canada is actually lower than Lower Canada on the map, it had to do with the fact that Upper Canada was situated on the Upper part of the water access route); then in 1840 they became known as Canada East and Canada West.
