Über mich
An ESL (English) teacher, and volunteer firefighter living in his car.
I'm flexetarian and I have practiced a lot of sports that I love. They include soccer, football, wrestling, rugby, baseball, lacrosse, and now mainly rock climbing and cycling! I would love to dance more, but I often don't pack dancing shoes, so dancing barefeet is an option!
PRIMARY LIFE OBJECTIVES:
Smile, laugh, make friends, and save some money to buy an apartment or something.
SIDE MISSIONS:
Learn to dance better (open to lots of dancing styles)
Start a Youtube channel... maybe one day
Be a mediator, and or study peace and conflict resolution
Bake and share my own sourdough bread.
Do more yoga.
Other Life Objectives: Ride my bicycle, rock climb, workout, improve my French, Spanish, Arabic
, Catalan, or any language really... travel, ideally via bicycle.
Bonus objective - Jiu-jitsu? Meh, I'd rather be a runner or a wise human than a fighter.
IN ANOTHER LIFE I'D BE
A professional athlete, especially in the domain of rock climbing or cycling.
LIFESTYLE
I'm straight, maybe like 1% curious, but more importantly I am LGBTQ+ friendly.
ABOUT ME
Laughter is my medicine, so not much escapes my droll attitude. I also love having really good, thought invoking or just outright silly conversations. I can also be quite quiet at first (when necessary).
PHILOSOPHY
Il faut cultiver notre jardin.
(Voltaire)
SOMETHING I WANT TO IMPROVE
I want to swim more, I'm always wanting more cooking experience, and I want to learn to tie lots of knots.
Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin
I'm on couchsurfing to meet locals while I travel, and meet foreigners when I'm not. I like meeting interesting people!
And the reason I've stayed on Couchsurfing, despite the paywall, is because of the film "A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood"
Interessen
I have cousins in Mexico that drew me into a passion for learning languages, and I grew up in a province that had me in love with all sports, even ice hockey despite my inability to skate well. I look forward to learning more languages through people and travels.

Musik, Filme und Bücher
As far as music. all types. They're all great in context. like any other types/genres of media.
My go-to album is "Greatest Hits Vol. 1" the first full length album by P'tit Belliveau
Movies are rad. I love Monty Python's Holy Grail.
The book that gets me thinking is Candide by Voltaire. I enjoy the plots of Greek mythologies, and a play I enjoyed reading is Bombay Black by Anosh Irani. Lastly, I just finished reading The Girl Who Saved the King of Sweden by Jonas Jonasson, and it's quite silly, it's as if Monty Python somehow became a non-fiction novel (but it's fiction that feels real).
Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe
Watching amazing acrobatic feats of lucha libre in Mexico. 😀
Translating French to an English speaking Newfoundlander whom I could barely understand.
Hiking with a kitten on a leash.
Spontaneous cave exploring.
Lehren, lernen, teilen
I REALLY want to learn how to sail and live on a sailboat.
I want to start teaching gym, but for now I can teach English French and Spanish... as well as the ASL alphabet (for the modt part).
I want to learn a lot of things (see above, or just ask me).
I want to share my life stories, and one day my home as well!
I can most definitely do an oil change with the right tools (and more mechanical work).
I also studied Music and Music Technology. I'd love to share what I can of that knowledge.
Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann
I learned some massages in Government paid French immersion school!
I can offer hosts my ears to listen, and my ideas to share.
Also, refer back to "teach, learn, share" especially if you are patient, and like bread!
