About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Conquer the World, and then redistribute it, on a Motorcycle

ABOUT ME

Love me or hate me, I am the guy who strikes up the conversation at the bus stop. I enjoy lunches with the homeless, all night conversations, hiking up the mountain and spitting off the top, smoking my pipe, ripping through valleys on a motorcycle, penetrating and truth seeking cross examinations of our most closely held beliefs. I have an almost unquenchable desire for life, to live it, make it better for others and myself, and to prolong it.

As for the "stats" I am 30 years old and just finished law school. I live in Vancouver and am new to BC. I travel by motorcycle frequently and sleep under the stars.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am couch surfing because camping alone gets really REALLY lonely, and wet, and cold, and I genuinely love people.

Interests

Motorcycles, not fancy ones, fast ones, or powerful ones, those that are falling apart, neglected, and discarded. Its not about looking cool, but about getting from point a to point b, alive.

Social justice.

Film, I have seen too many movies, good ones and bad ones.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived in the Ukraine for 4 months with an elderly couple who spoke no English. I spoke no Ukrainian. It was a struggle, but amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn about the world around me, and I have a lot of experience to share. My brain is the cross between a James Joyce Novel and an Encyclopedia. So my conversations or monologues take the form of either beautiful stories or incoherent ramblings.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories, I love telling stories, my stories, other peoples stories. I like hearing them just as much.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Colombia, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Peru, Ukraine

Countries I’ve Lived In

Canada, Colombia, United States
