CURRENT MISSION

be in one place longer than a year?

ABOUT ME

I'm someone who likes to see all the possibilities life has to offer. Well, the good stuff at least... Never too serious about anything. Would love to live a different kind of life each year for the rest of my life - or until i get tired of it.

It's a big big world, and we see such a small tiny bit of it in our lives. I am constantly put in awe at the kindness of people that i meet.

PHILOSOPHY

Live the best you can while hurting as few as you can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

hosting, couchsmurfing and the occassional event...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Stayed with a friend of a friend who turned out to be a couch surfer and turned out to be a great experience. I hope to repay all the amazing generosity that I have received over the years - people have shown me such incredible hospitality. I am forever indebted.

Interests

A jack of many trades and master of none. I love books, movies, snowboarding, random things like trying to juggle or spin poi, travelling, random jobs, wwoofing, and bike touring.

Actually, I adore cycle touring. I love it all: the pure freedom, ecstasies, frustrations, the ridiculous highs and the crippling lows, the flats, the breaks, the tailwinds, the headwinds, the downpours, the downhills, the flies, the mosquitoes, the pasta, the pasta, the pasta, the creepers and the creeps, the trucks and the shoulders...

Music, Movies, and Books

I used to love stuff by Kazuo Ishiguro - particularly his first three books. Music - pretty much anything. Love to hear the local stuff when I'm in a new country.

music: the new pornographers, said the whale, ben harper and so many more...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

got a chance to teach english on a round the world cruise called the peaceboat (www.peaceboat.org). fantastic vibes, beautiful places, and the best and happiest people you will ever meet.

tried to cycle down the middle of Australia but decided to call it quits after a week. it was ambitious and stupid but i regret nothing.

cycled Vancouver to Halifax and had a most excellent time.

taught in a couple of schools up in the arctic for a few years. i miss the craziness some days.

Teach, Learn, Share

can teach you the basics of poi - definitely nothing fancy.
