ABOUT ME

My wife Sarah and I recently moved out to the beautiful coastal mountains of Squamish, BC. I spend plenty of time riding my bike, hiking and enjoy backyard fires and conversation.

PHILOSOPHY

You can only make things possible If you try.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a massive reggae fan but listen to all kinds of music from hip-hop to Ska. Absolutely love live music, anything with horns. Seen far to many movies to decide what would be tops but i'm a big comedy fan and anything weird and interesting. Books wise, really love Shantaram-probably the best book of all time!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Built and lived in a wooden bender/yurt thingy for a year without electricity or running water. Hitchhiked coast to coast in Canada. Growing vegetables.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a few years carpentry under my belt so I could teach some of that. Happy to teach anyone how to fix their bicycle. i love sharing food, laughs and campfires.
