Overview
About Me
Easy going, but I get excited about my projects...
You can probably learn more about me from what other people have noticed (the references).
"Keep on, keepin' on"
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Well, this whole thing was REALLY cool when it was a non-profit collective of travellers... but then someone had to go make some money. Anywho, there's still good people on it and it's worth staying on for now.
My first experience in 2006 was amazing, I couchsurfed at a dozen different places all around Europe. It made my trip what it was, awesome!
Interests
Stubborn attempts at making the world a better place.
Outdoorsy stuff: sailing,paddling, snowboarding, biking, long-boarding(skateboard), surfing...
I love dogs and maple syrup (not together).

Music, Movies, and Books
Lots of different stuff, still has a soft spot for my punk days.
One of my favourite books: Judgement of Paris by Ross King. Mostly enjoy non fiction.
