About Me

I’m UK born, Canada raised, and have been described as ‘mostly harmless.’ I'm studying mechatronic engineering at UBC in Vancouver and yes, the name of the program was a major influence on my choice of discipline. This is a big wide world and I have seen only a small portion of it. So it is time, I feel, to broaden some horizons.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like people and I like stories; Couchsurfing seems an excellent way to find an abundance of each. Plus I want to write some new stories into my own life. Would you care to co-author a chapter or two?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was in this one movie: Hot Tub Time Machine. Whenever John Cussack looked in a mirror or remembered getting stabbed in the eye with a fork, I was that guy staring right back out at him/writhing in nostalgic pain. My best 15 minutes of fame to date!

Teach, Learn, Share

If you've got the time: show me the ins and out of your city! I'd love to hear the inside scoop on the local scene.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I make a mean waffle and am well versed in the classic Canadian dish 'le Poutine.' I can teach you the secrets of the cup song, the moonwalk, and the arcane art of juggling.
