About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Do all the art. All of it.

ABOUT ME

Hey folks, I am back home now and rearing for some hosting. I'm living with two cool guys in the heart of Winnipeg. Between us we are 2/3 of a band, 1/5 of a basketball team, 3/3 of rogue's gallery, and 3/4 of a couch surfing party.
Speaking for myself, I am a youth worker by day and comdeian, actor and poet in the evenings. I am trying to learn to draw and repair small motors. If you have skill in either of these things, I will be expecting lessons.

PHILOSOPHY

"Weird heroes and mould-breaking champions exist as living proof to those who need it that the tyranny of 'the rat race' is not yet final."
Hunter S Thompson

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Looking to host now, after many positive experiences traveling through Europe this winter and spring. Winnipegs a great city to visit, especially on a cross canada tour (afterwards, there's a lot of Saskatchewan to cross) and I'd be happy to show any new comers around.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted a couch surfer in Winnipeg over the summer. He was excellent and cleaned our bathroom by suprise while I was at work. What a cool guy! He had a blog and everything.
After that, I have been hosted by wonderful people in Spain, France, Italy, Croatia and Turkey. Encroyable!

Interests

I take a life long learning approach to things, so this list is constantly fluctuating.
Things that get my notice these days include:
Improvised theatre/ Storytelling
Information theory/ Physics
Friere style/ Socratic style teaching
Activism/ Civil Disobedience
