Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'd be hard-pressed to repay all the incredible kindness and hospitality shown to me by strangers/soon-to-be-friends during my globe-trotting adventures. But gosh darn it, I'm going to try!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I was inadvertently accommodated by a couchsurfing host I met on a bus in Morocco and made some wonderful friends through it. I've been hosted here, there and everywhere by kind strangers. Since then I've been fortunate enough to host a number of individuals/couples during their travels through Vancouver.
Interests
I enjoy all things outdoorsy - rock climbing, wakeboarding, cycling, hiking, camping, kayaking, snowboarding - as well as hitchhiking, bicycle mechanics, reading, writing, cooking, and everything in between, including fine food, refreshing drinks and good company.
