Just graduated uni, and whenever I'm not looking for a way to positively impact the world, you'll find me outside doing some kind of sport. Or indoors playing music, sampling local beers, or gaming... My hobbies are taking front and centre in my life now that I don't need to stay at the library until 10pm studying or practising!

Among my interests is traveling and meeting people from all walks of life, hearing about people's experiences and feeding my perspective of the world.

As a classical musician, biologist, outdoor enthusiast, Elon Musk fan and environmentalist, I hope to share interesting conversations with hosts and surfers alike!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Happiness is always better when shared. As a visitor experience staff, I've show countless tourists the popular gems of Canmore-Banff area. As a host, I'll show you the UNpopular gems of this place... ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

Canadian films, books, and music are my jam. Patrick Watson, Les Cowboys Fringants, The Orenda, Atonement, Stormlight Archives, Outlander, etc. Also, Sekiro.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking through the Burmese jungle for seven days looking for a village. Wanna find out if we made it? :D

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to share my knowledge of the natural world, and to tell stories of all my bear encounters. I'm also endeavouring to learn fiddling and jazz, after having spent the last two decades solely as a classical musician.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook for people! Specializing on making vegetarian/gf twists on some favourites. And if I’m carrying my fiddle around, I'll strike up some tunes for the gathered company.
