CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I've been doing Vipassana meditation for just over three years and am pursuing meditation as a lifestyle, along with vegetable farming and busking. I have a strong desire to get into Stand-up comedy, and other performance arts. I love to connect with fellow pilgrims and cultural refugees. At the moment I think of Vancouver Island as home base, and I'm doing some local couch surfing here. I've got various volunteer projects lined up (on the mainland, on Saturna, and Victoria) well into the Fall, and so I don't have the means or desire to get a place of my own right now. I live out of a very nice backpack, and I'm hoping to meet more hosts in and around Vic so that I can spread my self thin - and spread the love!

PHILOSOPHY

Approach selflessness, at (just about) any personal cost.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been learning how to be of service to others at any time, in any way possible. It's a full time job, and the pay and benifits are unbelievable. I am an awesome cook! I do dishes, laundry, and tell stories. I can make almost anyone feel good about their life.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm old school man! Couch surfing on the inter-whut??? I love that this culture has gone 2.0!

Interests

I love writing, percussion, traveling, cooking, vegetable farming, chin-wagging, chess, hackysack. Digging holes. Washing dishes. Surfing, kayaking, hiking.
