About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Occupy Christmas!:) Feed the poor!

ABOUT ME

I am a 30 year old Canadian and masters student in psychology, heading to Rio de Janeiro for a conference March 3-12, 2016. I have lived and travelled all over Canada, the US, as well as two years in Europe (France, Norway). I love to travel and learn new languages, and meet new people! For me travelling has shaped who I am as it has opened my reality to so much more than I could have thought possible. I am very outgoing and willing to try new things and be exposed to new people. I am a gay guy here, and would love to meet some fun gay guys in Brazil to spend time with:)

PHILOSOPHY

Die while you are alive and be absolutely dead. Then do whatever you want!

I believe in the innate human ability to become self aware and direct personal change as well as change on a grander scale. I believe that when I give to others, whatever that looks like, it keeps me grateful and less focused on my wants. I believe in constantly challenging myself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far I've hosted one traveller, but have had some requests that did not work out. I work weekends, and hosting needs to work with my roommate's schedule as well. I hope to host and be hosted in the near future

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've never been hosted yet:(

Interests

I like to do things that keep me challenged and busy! I am very interested in learning other languages and learning about other cultures. I speak French fluently, and am currently working on my Spanish which is still quite bad:) I study psychology so psychology is a big interest of mine, especially as it relates to gay bi lesbian and trans people. I love the outdoors, hiking, swimming, and meeting interesting men (ok, yes women too).
