About Me

Outgoing and open minded, I enjoy spending time with people that like to learn and have a good time.

My girlfriend and I are in the process of traveling counterclockwise around the world. It's been a couple years and it will be another few months still. We love to hang out and experience new things like food and culture. From LA to Tokyo, Malaysia to Melbourne, Singapore to Hong Kong, and Istanbul to Ireland, we could use all the help we can get - if you wouldn't mind opening your home to a couple of friendly Canadians, we're your people!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Fun and community. For me it's about being a part of a network that's exciting - the benefits of hosting and showing new friends around as well as being welcomed by people all around the world. It's a cool thing to be a part of.

Interests

Reading: travel, historical fiction, and non-fiction
Exploring: neighbourhoods, wilderness, culture, history, and cuisine
Music: new and interesting, or old and impressive
Games: whether with cards, boards, drinks, or video games
Sports: soccer, ultimate frisbee, table tennis, pool
Travel: places I haven't heard of and places I have. It's all good with the right mind set.

Music, Movies, and Books

Depends on my mood but it ranges from documentary to comedy, through to drama and and feel-good.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think it's pretty cool that my girlfriend and I have been travelling for 25 months out of a 35 month relationship, and still loving it.

Teach, Learn, Share

Yes, yes, and yes. Those are the first things that come to mind. The more we come together, the better it gets - when we learn from our differences we can celebrate what we have in common.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Humour, stories, thoughts, cooking, cleaning, and thoughtfulness.
