About Me
ABOUT ME
What can i say about "me"? Our story begins 29 years ago... no, but seriously, where to begin?
I am currently traveling back to Winnipeg, settling in after having spent some 7 years in Ottawa, Toronto and months traveling around Europe, the Middle East, Northern and Eastern Africa. to name a few.
I'm a fun-loving guy. I'm easy to get along with. I don't hold any prejudices but have some pet-peeves. I'm optimistic and love cheering for the underdog. I'm pretty adaptable as well - so feel free to be yourself whenever I'm around.
I guess I'm "old" now considering I'm quickly approaching the big 3-0. I suppose I'd do best with those around my own age, but just as easily fit into crowds younger or older.
PHILOSOPHY
Plan, but not too much. Be flexible, but don't betray your principles or yourself. Be always a man for others.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
All the good experiences I have had, I believe, have shown me what a "good couchsurfer" looks like. Thank to those people. General outlook on CSing: Come in, relax, share your experiences and rest up and head out again. Maybe we'll meet again some day, maybe we won't. Doesn't matter too much. It's all about the moment right?
