Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Travel Europe and the UK to experience different cultures and meet cool people
ABOUT ME
I grew up just outside of Vancouver in the suburbs. For the past 5 years I've lived in different parts of the city. Kits, south granville and east van *shudder*
I love snowboarding and spent a season living up in Whistler which was cool.
I've played guitar for as long as I can remember and even taught guitar to kids for a stint.
As I travel unfortunately, I left my guitar(s) back home, so if you've got an instrument kicking around I'd be down for a jam.
I pretty much just packed up house and moved last July. I've been bouncing around between the UK and different parts of Europe ever since.
I'm pretty laid back, kinda go with the flow. Easy going and am always stoked to meet new ppl, grab a beer, grab a coffee, whatever.
Pretty much anything else you wanna know, just ask!
PHILOSOPHY
Don't really have one. I believe what you put out in the world comes back around. Do unto others as you'd have done unto you. cheezy?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The first night I arrived in Dubrovnik, there was this male opera group performing in the heart of the city. It was all blocked off but there were a whole bunch of people sitting on the steps of a church just around the corner listening in. The setting was amazing and it gave me goosebumps.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can try to teach you guitar! I'm also pretty fluent in french, although I had an encounter with a dude from france the other day and it looks like I'm a bit rusty.
