About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get as much as I can out of Montreal before moving

ABOUT ME

I'm friendly and always open to new experiences and meeting new people. Although I have some introverted tendencies, I know that all of my greatest moments have been shared with others.

PHILOSOPHY

What can I do in this present moment to better appreciate or enhance my life, or that of another, regardless of my circumstances? Do that. And don't fucking think about it. Just do it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Witnessing the Thaipusam festival at the Batu Caves in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, when I was only 10 years old, is something I will never forget. To a Westerner that had at that point not seen much beyond his own front door, this was an extremely shocking and eye-opening experience.

Reaching the Pacific Ocean in White Rock, British Columbia after a long bicycle tour is another experience that I won't soon forget. My brother and two friends pedaled 2000km from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan to get there.
