CURRENT MISSION

Wading through documentary footage from the cross-Canada bus trip. 200 crazy canucks interviewed in 10 provinces and 2 territories (sorry Nunavut, but the bus couldn't make it up there. Next time!!). Check out the blog at thedistancewithin.blogspot.com

ABOUT ME

I am an independent producer/director editing a documentary about what makes Canadians and Canada tick.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to see more communication between people, in towns and around the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hadn't done much couchsurfing before joining, but since embracing this website and all the people connected to it, I've had nothing but wonderful experiences! I've met so many people in this country I wouldn't have had the chance to meet any other way.

Interests

People - who we are, where we're going, how we're connected.

• documentaries
• boating
• politics
• blogging
• fishing
• beaches

Music, Movies, and Books

too many to even try to list

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Slept on a beach on Berneray, on the Western Isles in Scotland in October, in just a sleeping bag, and got woken by the dawn in time to see a lone fishing boat heading out into the sunrise. And a couple fishermen staring at me like I was nuts.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to share the stories of people I've met and interviewed. Hopefully in a year I'll have something concise. I could also share film skills I've learned in school and on the road. I really want to learn French. And I think I want to learn more about politics . . . I think.
