Hello. I'm generally optimistic, a typical polite Canadian. Maybe not typical. If it's weird-in-a-good-way then I'd probably like to be familiar if I'm not already, am into oddball music and film. I suppose that's not uncommon.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've had some astoundingly good experiences courtesy of connections made on this website and have come to think of it as an essential travel tool. Couchsurfing has changed the way I do trips into brief meetings with kindred characters, allowing us to meet and share.

Music, Movies, and Books

My tastes are pretty broad but I'm always looking for more good lo-fi surf sounding jams, and gritty old outlaw country is tough to beat. I might just be saying that last part because it sounds right. I think my only country record is something by Dolly Parton. I'd rather read, just finished a book about the work of Gurdjieff, and want to know what you have on your bookshelf.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to NYC alone and bought a starter collection of gemstones when I was 25. The diamond district was a grittier place at that time.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can guide you through a yoga routine, make something nice for dinner, and practice speaking phrases in whatever language you know that isn't english.

Stories and smiles.
