About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I strive to remain positive always, although this is often difficult. I believe that humanity is progressing and each day we are better than they day before.

ABOUT ME

I am a man who loves to learn. I read many books often with scientific or existential themes and enjoy many physical activities like slacklining and cycling.

I also am an avid artist of a few different mediums. I grew up drawing with pencil but have recently started making jewellery out of wood and antler. Check it out here:

I have also recently taken up the Ukulele and I love it.

My wife Kayla is currently in school pursuing her Masters in City Planning. She plays a little bit of the fiddle and we love watching movies together.

We also have a little dog name Freya. She is shy but friendly.

PHILOSOPHY

I see every individual as a necessary product of the societal system we are all involved in. It is impossible to judge an other's actions until I have experienced all that they have. Everything happens for a reason. Everyone plays their part.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My wife Kayla and I traveled in 2011 for 6 months around New Zealand and Western Europe. We surfed four times and had three great experiences. If you stay with us I will tell you all about why our fourth experience was terrible. Its a good story and I've gotten quite good at telling it.

Four times in Hamburg Germany, Bern Switzerland, Marseille France, and Paris France. Awesome!
