Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To contribute to the happiness of as many people as possible
ABOUT ME
We are fun-loving people that appreciate the company of others. We enjoy good food, adventure, storytelling, nature, dancing, bright colours, and a good laugh. We are both university grads that try to take breaks in our careers to explore the globe. Myself (Mikey) have a business background and work with an international non-profit organization known as Junior Achievement, and Beth has a Political Science degree and works with a non-profit arts organization known as This Town is Small. We have been together for several years and live in a communal living space with a few musician friends.
PHILOSOPHY
The pursuit of happiness is our number one goal, so long as that doesn't disrupt another's own pursuit. Good times, good people, good vibes, and good music are all part of that equation. The classic "work hard, play hard" is also a motto that both of us are familiar with.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
We are new to couch-surfing, but are no strangers to hosting and traveling. We hope to use this site to save money when we travel, get to know awesome new people, and host visitors to our lovely island.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
We are new to this site, so we have no experience. We have hosted many bands traveling through town, artists participating in local festivals, and friends of friends. We have also stay in many AirBnB's, but this is our first time using Couchsurfing.
Interests
Many of my interests lie in the worlds of photography,cooking, event planning, and filmmaking. I have a community art project called Perfect Strangers that can be seen by visiting www.perfectstrangers.ca. Beth is heavily involved with local politics and human rights activism.
