Know Thyself

ABOUT ME

Hello! I am a friendly guy with an array of interests. Currently, I am spending most of my time studying the law. Born in Ottawa, currently living in Toronto. And I love potatoes - preferably cooked ones.

I am socially liberal (ie. accepting). I don't smoke cigarettes nor frequently consume excessive amounts of inebriating substances.

Et en francais - je m'appelle Jesse (peut-etre c'est evident au cause de la profile en haut) et je viens du Canada. Canada est tres grand et vaste. Je suis amicable, sympa, et modeste. J'aime rencontrer des gens de partout!

I often couchsurf/host with my partner: http://www.couchsurfing.org/people/maej/

PHILOSOPHY

Non-violence, anti-racism, queer positive, modesty, curiosity, respect of others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I frequently talk about CS. When I travel, I use CS frequently. Sometimes people stay with me too - which is fun, fun, fun.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Good! I freely recommend it and employ it when I get out of the city. I met some swell people in NYC, Toronto, Tennessee, Scotland, England and France.

Interests

Reading, learning, playing folk and Klezmer music, biking, community organizing, vegetarianism. My band is called the "Jewstice League Klezmer Ensemble" - don't google us because you won't find anything.
