I'm a pretty easy-going guy, quick with a joke, slow to anger. I like to meet new people and hosting is a great excuse to re-explore your own city!

I like to read, play video games, listen to music, watch movies, go for drives, build things, go out for beers. I'm working on getting into mountain biking and unicycling.

Good people, good beer, good laughs!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've surfed once and hosted a couple times and always had a great experience and met great and interesting people!

Interests

I love spending time outside - doing anything really: camping, going for walks or hikes, hitting the river valley trail with a drink and good company... I basically just love to be outside at all times. I'm a lot like a dog in that way I guess. It's great to be able to explore a city on foot.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once made a "to-do" list... and completed it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have an undergraduate degree in philosophy and philosophy-related things and I have been working in residential finishing carpentry for the past 3 years. I can (maybe) hold an semi-intellectual conversation (for at least a couple minutes before cracking a joke) and also offer advice to the amateur or aspiring carpenter.

I live in an up-and-coming Edmonton neighbourhood with many bistros, restaurants, boutiques, and arts-related shops within walking distance. I have grown up in Edmonton and know what the city has to offer and what's good!
