About Me

Hi there, I am a twenty-two year old male from a small town in Ontario, Canada. I am currently travelling the world and using my camera to create memories for myself and also to inspire others to see what I see!

I graduated college with diploma directed towards Canadian law enforcement. I began travelling the world, to gain life experience to become a police officer, but I have fallen in love with photography.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been directed to use couch surfing as a means of being able to meet locals in countries and cities I visit. I love meeting new people and learning/sharing.

I am a traveller rather than a tourist. Couchsurfing seems to be a great outlet to meet like-minded individuals.

Interests

I grew up as an athlete. I have a strong passion for volleyball, but sadly I got injured and can't play at the level I would like to anymore. After being injured, I was introduced to photography and that is how I began to travel. These are my main interests but I could literally talk about anything or do anything (unless it involves snakes or heights).

Music, Movies, and Books

I have seen RHCP and The Killers live; I enjoy anything with a good beat (country, rock, pop, rnb, alternative, etc.).

My favorite movie is Good Will Hunting. I prefer movies with series or TV shows with multiple seasons because I love a good story.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Flying from Queenstown to Milford Sound, New Zealand on a beautiful day. Out of the 18 countries that I have visited over the past two years, this was the first experience to give me chills.

Teach, Learn, Share

When I got injured (and when I was playing) I coached volleyball. This was the first 'teaching' gig that I got and it opened my eyes to the ability one person can have on another. Of course when you grow up, you realize people can play a key benefit in your life, but being a key benefit in somebody else's life is very empowering.

I travel the world by passion and I want to inspire other people to do the same.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am an easygoing guy. I would like to say I have some worthwhile experiences that I am willing to share.

Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Czech Republic, Dominican Republic, France, Germany, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Malaysia, Mexico, Monaco, Netherlands, New Zealand, Singapore, Switzerland, Thailand, United Kingdom, United States, Vatican City State, Viet Nam
