Hey, my name is Ross Daniel from Victoria, BC, Canada. I used to be a long haired, funny, friendly hippy, but now I am a short haired professional math teacher (although still friendly and funny). I love to be outdoors, listen to music, and talk about deep and interesting things. I love to learn. I’m a happy, adventurous, and very ambitious person. I value honesty, passion, creativity, and artistic abilities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love Couchsurfing because it is an amazing way to connect with new people and authentically engage in different cultures. I have made some very close friends through this platform and am excited to make more meaningful connections with others in the future. I also pride myself in acting with the utmost respect for people and property while I am a guest in their homes.

Interests

I am currently working as a licensed teacher in Canada. I studied Math, Exercise Science, and Education at university. In my free time, I like to go surfing and rock climbing. You can also find me taking pictures, growing plants, playing with my dog, hiking, and camping.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's a tie between:

1. Learning how to surf.
2. Scuba diving the Great Barrier Reef.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you come visit me in the summer, I can take you on the most amazing tubing trip down the Cowichan River.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you need help with your English, I would love to help you! I can also offer authentic Canadian breakfast and do the dishes. I could walk your dog for you and water your plants. And I also love having deep conversations.
