About Me

ABOUT ME

I love reading, movies, biking, traveling, hiking, sailing, learning, building things, music, and exploring. I'm all about the different lives you can have across this world and want to check some of them out. Violin performance was my major at McGill and I took the IB Diploma program in High School. I play violin and fiddle in a bluegrass band.

PHILOSOPHY

No one should fight for anything, until everyone can fight for something.

The things you own end up owning you.

Excellence has no master.

Ahh for just one time, I would take the Northwest passage.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hosted lots of surfers when I lived in a big house in Sudbury a few years back. I have surfed in Iceland and a few places in the USA. I hope to offer space in my house until I sell it and then surf for a while.
