CURRENT MISSION

I'm not sure I'm into missions.

ABOUT ME

I'm calm and interested and active, either all at the same time or one after the other. I like to read and play music, socialize and explore, play sports and enjoy the outdoors.

Interests

Although I don't do it nearly often enough, I like to explore new countries and meet people and learn their languages as best I can.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just because I had to keep warm, I hiked as fast as I could through the cloud and rain of the Tatra Mountains in southern Poland and had one of the most amazing days of my life. I paraglided over the Fraser Valley in British Columbia, canoed several times the whitewater rapids of Quebec's dark rivers, and hitchhiked by myself from Montreal up to the Yukon and Alaska. (You pick one the one you like.)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll teach you ... a little music maybe, something about languages, how to skate and ski . Not that I'm particularly great at any of that stuff.
