I am a young Canadian who enjoys thinking, playing games, and spending time with friends. I have a Masters Degree in philosophy, a subject that I love, and plan on continue working in. I paid for that degree and my undergrad by Planting Trees every summer in Northern Canada (and occasionally not that northern), a job which I love with mixed feelings. I love to read and always have a book or two on the go.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I am on couch surfing because I have found that when I travel if I interact more with people who actually live in the places I go to, (instead of the nice travelers in the hostels along the way) I get so much more from that experience, learning about the place and the lives in it. I would like to be able to offer my home to travelers who do want to meet some locals, and I would like to meet people in other places as well.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I have planted over 800,000 Trees. Thats not bad right?

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can teach philosophical concepts, and I can learn about them too! I can teach some little bits of playing guitar, but could certainly learn far more.

I love history, and love stories about the past and lives and people in it, and can teach some but would like to learn.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I can share ideas, cooking skills, and conversation. And presumably more!
