I'm a dirtbag canoe guide for an outfitter based in Winnipeg, Manitoba. I love to travel and spend time outdoors. When I'm not working I'm usually off somewhere in the wilderness, hiking, paddling or camping. I love sharing stories with interesting people, and I'm always happy to sit around and talk, whether its around a campfire, bar or kitchen table. I'm very easy going and always down for an adventure!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm looking to find authentic cultural experiences, meet interesting people, and keep expenses to a minimum so that I can travel more!
