Overview
About Me
I'm a fun loving and easy going guy. I like music, travel, boardgames, the great outdoors, cold beer, hot tea, good food, adventure and laughter.
A couple of years ago I completed a program in sustainable new construction before I moved to Toronto to plant gardens on city rooftops. I've been working in sustainable construction ever since although this winter I'm currently working as a server in a craft beer bar.
I'm also quite involved in the folk music and dance scene in Toronto.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I originally joined to help me find accommodation while backpacking through Europe, although, I found much more than that. Over the years Couchsurfing has allowed me to meet people, visit locations and have experiences I never would have found without it.
Interests
I enjoy listening to music and podcasts while building furniture out of scavenged materials, I like to draw and design, I enjoy playing strategy boardgames with friends over a few beer and I participate in English folk dance and song circles every Monday.

Music, Movies, and Books
My favourite music genre would probably be traditional folk although I listen to a little bit of everything. If I had to chose the bands that get the most airtime at my place I would have to say The Guess Who, Murder Murder, Stan Rogers, Gogol Bordello and Movits!.
I like a variety of film genres but the top 3 would be Sci-Fi, Fantasy and Western.
Lately I've been a bit fixated on books portraying dystopian futures.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
