CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world or die trying!!!

ABOUT ME

I love to travel. I consider myself low-maintenance and easy-going, hence my membership to this website.

I have traveled the world and if you are interested in hearing some of my interesting experiences, I'd gladly fill you in!

PHILOSOPHY

To travel the world and see as much as I can during my life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Vancouver is a great city to visit and I have lived here most of my life. I can fill you in on what's worth seeing depending on your tastes and what is probably over-rated.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm very new to CouchSurfing :o)

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: dramas and comedies, especially British comedies.
Books: Classics, especially Dostoevsky, Tolstoy and other Russian classics. Literary Prize winners seldom disappoint me. Also Best Sellers so long as it's not too flaky
Music: anything that makes me want to dance or has a good beat to it, anything that inspires me, or just sounds good to me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen and visited over 30 countries in every continent except Australia and Antartica. I'll get there eventually. I filled up every last page of my last passport with stamps and Visas. I just received a new passport with twice as many pages which I'll start using very, very soon.
I've also experienced almost every kind of natural disaster, from Earthquakes, to massive floods, volcanos, etc....you could say I have 9 lives!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a health nut, but not a health freak. I believe in moderation of everything even moderation. I can't imagine life without exercise, fruits and veggies. I know a lot about health and science. Travel too. I'm also trying to learn a few key phrases from as many languages as I can. Living in Vancouver has enabled me to do pretty well with that goal.
