I'm a bearded, amateur body builder/sensitive musician/artist, from Vancouver Island, BC. I play in 2 bands and work at a brewery here on the island. I am also slowly but surely completing my Global Studies degree.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I couch surfed in Quebec with some friends and it was great, so now I want some more. If I can convince my roommates, then I love to host. However, I'm mainly here to surf!
