ABOUT ME

I'm just a regular couchsurfing dude who likes to hang out!

I spent five years living in the Canadian rockies and hosted travellers when I met them. I really like the idea of helping out others especially, in a new and unfamiliar location. Also I have trouble with commas. I'm never really certain where to put them?

"People whose sole aim is to be happy turn out to be self-centered, discontented, and restless. But if your goal is to create something beautiful, achieve something worthwhile, or provide some service, and if you work toward such a commitment, happiness is a by-product." –Eugenie G. Wheeler

Besides the noble art of getting things done, there is the noble art of leaving things undone. The wisdom of life consists in the elimination of non-essentials.
- Lin Yutang
