I have just relocated to Toronto from New Zealand and am in the process of establishing myself in the area. I would love to meet new people and learn more about the city while I look for longer term accommodation, and see couch surfing as a fantastic way to network.

I enjoy cooking, and would love to prepare a meal for any prospective host. Moreover, I am a fairly entertaining conversationalist, a tidy and considerate house guest, and a stalwart initiator of general mirth and merriment.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I believe that hospitality is one of the most significant commonalities of Human culture. I endeavor to offer hospitality when I am able and not abuse it when it is in turn offered to me. I see CS as a great way to put this in practice !

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met one of my best friends as a result of him being a couch surfing guest of my flatmate many years ago.

Although new to couchsurfing.org, I have enjoyed hosting and being hosted by couch surfers in New Zealand, Canada, Hong Kong, and Cuba.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I have been studying Tai Chi for a number of years now and am happy to show some basics.

I have been a cocktail bartender for most of my professional life and can talk booze till the cows come home if that wets your whistle.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

Years working in hospitality has made me an excellent cook, and all round tidy and considerate house guest.

I can share knowledge and/or skills in the following areas: Bartending, Cooking, Slackline, Philosophy, Psychology, Health/Wellness, Tai Chi, Kung Fu.

I can basically hold a conversation about anything, so happy to share a drink and spin a yarn :)
