About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to win at life

ABOUT ME

I have lived in Toronto for the past 4 years, and I love this city. I walk to work everyday to a great job that's equal parts stress and fun. I take pride in being just as well versed in things of substance as things of pure frivolity. I have a wide range of interests in books, movies, sports, people, life experiences.

Let's have a few beers and take it from there.

PHILOSOPHY

Take it all in stride. You can't please anyone else until you've made yourself happy first. Pragmatic optimist.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm a relatively new member so, so far I've just been hosting some people when I can. Really looking forward to travelling in Argentina later this summer and hoping to get to know some couchsurfers there!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Great so far....let's keep it going!

Interests

One of my favouritest things to do is sit in a park or cafe or square with a cold pint and people watch. Sorry for something a little cliched, but i love it.

Other activities I love are biking, frisbee, going to concerts, cheering at sporting events, and eating.
