About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Sully the good name of Canada

ABOUT ME

Born and raised in the country, I partook in many family road trips throughout my childhood and love the idea of travelling (and hope to do more). This same passion is what has led me to become a teacher of the arts (English, History, Geography). I love learning about the cultures and histories of various people.

PHILOSOPHY

I feel that the experiences (and reactions to those experiences) of life are what ultimately becomes your life. For that reason, I always look for more experiences and try to avoid that life-killing word "no".

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Teach, Learn, Share

I am an English/History teacher with an interest in Christian theology. In addition to being a teacher, I have been a truck (lorry) driver and grew up on a farm. I enjoy talking about anything that falls within those topics (and just about anything else).

What I Can Share with Hosts

An incredible curiosity combined with an eagerness to share experiences and connections.
