About Me

Live life.
Adventurous tendencies.
I like to have a good time.
All that is natural is good for you- don't eat processed food, exercise daily, smile.
Transparency in all things.
Make progress, or make excuses.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to make connections; networking is the key to new opportunities.
I find meaning in helping other people on a personal basis.

Also, I find much enjoyment in showing people around; I give a mean tour of Vancouver Island.

Interests

I enjoy the outdoors, fitness, and healthy eating.
Always down for an adventure, any time, any day.

Enjoy riding my motorcycle, hiking, reading, swimming in local lakes, and eating sushi (I could eat it all day, every day).

Not a big party guy. Don't mind hitting up a club or house party, but its a rarity.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books are like trophies on a shelf; finishing one is an accomplishment.
I have a list of 300 or so fiction books I'm trying to read my way through. Once I'm done with those, I'll start on the non-fiction.

So far, 'Catch 22' is my favorite, followed closely by 'East of Eden' and 'For Whom the Bell Tolls'.

I don't watch a lot of television or movies. A few of the one's I do enjoy are:
Breaking Bad
Malcolm in the Middle
Drive
Fight Club
Fast Five
Miss March
127 Hours
Generation Kill
Gattica
Star Trek (2009)
The Sound of Music
La Vita e Bella

Music, anything goes. My friends will go through my iPod and say, "Dude, wtf?!?" I have a large variety of things on there.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have stories for days.
Still in pursuit of something that takes my breath away.

I'll share some tales when you visit.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I live on a 27 foot sailboat, a stone's throw from downtown.
There's single bed in the aft end of the boat that is free.
There's a washroom in the common area in the marina. Showers cost 2 dollars for 5 minutes (I think... I usually shower at work or the gym).

For cooking food, there's a cook top and a sink with a hand pump. No fridge.

Canada, China, Hong Kong, United States
