CURRENT MISSION

See the world. Try to make it a better place. Have a good time.

ABOUT ME

I am a Canadian living the expat life down here in South America! I came down to Santiago in February of 2015 to teach English at a primary school, with the ultimate goal of learning Spanish. Then, I met a girl and decided to stay for a while longer. Right now we live together in our apartment located in the centre of the city.
I am an outgoing guy with a warm sense of humour. I love travelling because of the people I meet, the memories I make, and the things I learn. I like to stay up to date on current events especially when international politics is concerned. I like to discuss abstract ideas and have fruitful conversations with people. I enjoy learning about different cultures. My desire right now is to learn more languages. I love basketball - if you follow the NBA we´ll have a lot to talk about.

PHILOSOPHY

Live. Laugh. Learn. Family. Friends. Be a good person. Be happy.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm relatively new to couchsurfing! I did it twice when I was studying in Europe in 2012 and had really good experiences all in all. My girlfriend (who I now live with now) got me back into it!
