Overview
About Me
I'm a 22 year old fella from the East Coast of Canada. I grew up in the small town of Salisbury New Brunswick out in the country. I've owned lots of animals like horses, dogs and cats. Absolutely love the outdoors and and of course playing music.
Moved to Halifax when I was 17 to study music in college. I adore all creative arts. I was pursuing the music "dream" for about 7 years, playing in all kinds of bands and got quite far with it before I realized I needed a break from the often chaotic life of a musician. I was burnt out from the hussle and bussle of it all. So I left all the bands I was in and am now going backpacking around the western hemisphere.
I absolutely love life on all fronts and I want it to happen to me with full force. I have emmence fascination with humans and all our different cultures and lifestyles. I can't wait to meet all the beautiful people that find their way onto my path. Looking forward to learning from each other and enriching this life we are living.
Much love to you all!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The most successful band I was in got to record our latest album in Cleveland Ohio. It was an experience of a life time. Despite the cramped 24 hour drives in my buddy's Honda Civic with 5 big dudes and all our music gear, I will be forever thankful for such an amazing time.
Teach, Learn, Share
I strongly believe that without you I could never know myself. We broaden eachothers views and perspectives. Plus if you didn't take an opposing view to mine, I wouldn't know what I mean!
I have myself to offer as a being and I look to learn from you and perhaps may shed light on certain things for you. But I would not do this on purpose. After all we can teach no one anything. All we can do is show them things, the teaching can only be done by the individual. We can only ever teach ourselves.
You can lead a horse to water but you cannot make them drink!
What I Can Share with Hosts
Im very easy going and relaxed, I feel comfortable in almost all situations. I love to get to know new people and share ideas and interests, I believe there is something to learn from everyone. I'm very relaxed and go with the flow and always excited and ready for an adventure!
On top of that I am more than happy to help out with any and all house hold chores. Anything I can do to help out my hosts snd make their lives easier. Please don't hesitate to ask! It is an honor and a priviledge to be invieted into someones home and I don't take it lightly.
