About Me

Travel is automatically connected with my work which has become integrated into my life. I travel the world, open to experience, taking in as much as I can - experiencing architecture and most importantly the cultures that created it.

About Me
Love to go out of my element and discover new things - meet new people. When I look back the most meaningful experiences in my life were travelling and getting outside of my everyday routines.

Philosophy
"Your focus determines your reality"
"I don't regret the things I've done, but those I did not do!"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far I have Couch Surfed in Copenhagen and Sweden. The experience compelled me to join couch surfing as I am sure many other have done. It made meeting fellow travellers and locals easy and I feel this is the most effective way to learn about a culture.

Now that I have a place of my own I want to give back. I feel as if hosting couch surfers will allow me to travel in reverse - when people come to stay they offer a new perspective on the place I have settled in and come to know as my current home.
While I haven't given back using couchsurfing proper my time spent living in Calgary AB for 8 years I had over 10 roommates, acquaintances from the various architecture schools who were coming through the city interning on their student work terms. Both guys and girls, younger and older. All good. I am pretty chill and can provide references if it makes you feel more comfortable.
