About Me

CURRENT MISSION: record an album.

ABOUT ME

I'm an optimistic Canadian who loooooves to travel and hear stories. Writing a book. Prefers mountains over malls. Thunderstorms are my favorite.

I love music and to hear others' stories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love seeing small villages and the old people inthe places where I travel. I'm not too huge on museums. I am huge on old trees, all water and mossy stone.

For outings, I've been very happy tagging along with hosts when going out. I like to dance and am easy to get along with, if I do say so myself. I love learning about the attitudes and likes/dislikes of the people I'm with.

COUCH SURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couch surfed in Canada and Europe pretty thoroughly. I have hosted tons of people in Fredericton NB, Edmonton AB, Montreal QC and now Stockholm.

Interests

My favourite activities are hiking, writing, skiing, rock climbing and cycling. I like to sing - jam sessions and campfire songs are my #1 fav activity.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite movie is Wayne's World, closely followed by UP. The Grand Budapest Hotel.

I like Charles Dickens.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Made an igloo in the arctic with the Inuit.

Teach, Learn, Share

Survival skills, wood cutting.

I'd love to learn Swedish.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A sandwhich, and probably embarassing stories.
