CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Explorer, reader, runner. Worked in quite a few jobs. Travelled around the world. I've some drive for a career balanced with an exploratory drive.

PHILOSOPHY

Pretty liberal, open-minded - I know everyone says they are open minded but I am.
I enjoy throwing a spanner in the works in some blase liberal complacency.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Meeting locals in cities I travel always makes a trip more enjoyable. I try to attend events when I'm in the cities. I occasionally couch-surf, mixing up my accommodations with hostels. I haven't hosted yet in Canada but I am open to that if a traveller doesn't mind the current quiet and studious domestic situation.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started using couchsurfing in China. Worked great. I have not used it much in Canada but am open to hosting.

Learn: I love history and learning about different cultures. I'm a curious but ultimately un-gifted linguist.
