I would say I'm an adventurous, optimistic, passionate human being. I enjoy learning about anything and everything. I was homeschooled while I was growing up. I have 6 brothers and 3 sisters (but only two parents, thankfully). I grew up in the country, on 10 acres of land. I have held numerous jobs: retail, roofing, camp counselor, restaurants...and so on and so forth. I am a devout Christian, I love the Lord and enjoy growing in my faith. I'm a big believer in education, but not just the degrees, but also travel and life experience trying new things on a consistent basis.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I desire to travel, meet new people, try new food, and gain knowledge and wisdom from new experiences.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music, both playing it and listening to it. I play classical tunes on the violin and country songs on the banjo. I also write country music lyrics. I love listening to Country, Pop, and Classical. As for movies, it doesn't get much better than the Lord Of The Rings, Starwars, and Narnia. Books, I like non-fiction more than fiction. Enjoy studying theology, psychology, and the odd book on history (I usually listen to cds for history). Finally, I love sports: soccer (football), archery, tennis, and hockey.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I won a soccer trophy at camp. All the guys had a guy partner, and all the girls had a girl partner...except for me and this girl, so they figured it would be more fair to put us together than to pair each of us up with a coach, so they did and me and this girl beat em all (19 other teams) for the prize.

Teach, Learn, Share

It's not about the years in your life, it's the life in your years. Abraham Lincoln.
People don't care how much you know till they know how much you care.
Those who say it can't be done should stand out of the way of those already doing it.
Quitters never win, winners never quit.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My experiences at Bible College (yes, believe it or not I have some good stories from there). My experiences in Eastern Europe, I was there for 5 months. Some random stories from the different places I've worked. If people have questions about God or Christianity in general there is a good chance I can answer some of their questions. If they have questions about Canada I would love to talk with them about my country. If they want to talk about their experiences with someone I'd love to listen.
