CURRENT MISSION

Collecting imagery, themes and observations around the globe. The mission? i am aiming to put more of these out into the world for the people i share it with. creative ventures.

ABOUT ME

An east coast Canadian travelling the world as a full-time journey, because of a part time job. I am an artist & a lover. Always seeking honest glimpses of different people's realities and curious new spaces&places

I am a photographer, videographer, Improvisor, cyclist, pescetarian, and a traveller... need that be said? =)

I pride myself on my ability to adapt and to work with what is at hand. I am a strong, self-motivated, compassionate, dedicated and social individual who loves using photography/videography to share stories. I am a cultural, historical enthusiast. A bike geek, comedy do-er, and always open to embracing and trying what's around the corner. Generally speaking, I love to be outside, bike touring is my favorite form of travel and i am always down for a camping mission. When I am not creating art and exploring the world on my own watch, I work for a company called www.Backroads.com designing and leading luxury active holidays around the globe. Backroads will take me to an area of the world, i'll work for a period of time, and then ill travel & play on my own watch.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Interests

bikes, theater, art, natural forces, humans & social structures, as well as other types of structures within the living world.

The only constant is change.
There is growth and then decay, and then the cycle continues. This fascinates me, and it is usually a common element found threaded through out my art work.
