ABOUT ME
Working part time in Wasagaming, MB as a stone mason and also working around Canada as a part time touring musician. I play mandolin, guitar, piano and am learning the fiddle. I'm in a band called the Crooked Brothers. The rest of the time I canoe, swim, bike, surf (whitewater surfing), rock climb, snowboard, kayak and hike. I like cooking a lot, mostly vegetarian food.
CURRENT PHILOSOPHY
Love, as much as possible.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I think this is a great tool for travelers and I've met some great people through it. I hope to continue doing so!
