CURRENT MISSION

" There I travel, and for the only worthwhile challenge is to traverse it's full length. And there I travel, looking, looking breathlessly'"

ABOUT ME

The most simple things inspire me the most: 30cm freshies, nice waves, a pretty sunset, black butter to longboard, a silly movie.... but music mostly. http://www.last.fm /user /red_dragn.
I will never again sacrifice the things I want out of life or the person that I am for anybody else. This extends to ever facet of my life: work, friends, family, or perspective partner. I am all or nothing all the time. I am real. I am raw. I live to express myself through my actions, attitude, snowboarding, skateboarding, prose, ink, musical preference, piercings and art. I am COMPLETELY driven by passion and my love of life. I would be thrilled to meet anybody who lives to this kind of level. In this age of instant messaging, text messaging and the zillion other ways to communicate without actually communicating I am finding it extremely frustrating that people seem to be losing basic courtesy and respect for others. My only complaint about living in a city is that it seems like everybody here has a bachelors degree in bullshitting and game playing - and I just dont want to live my life like that. I love this community because it's all about spreading love to others, spreading good will and being a student of the world. I am eager to continue my journey... perhaps with your help!

PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live in a bit of a suburb of Vancouver so I haven't had the pleasure of hosting many people just yet but I am active in the community here and once I return from my month in Vietnam I am moving back into the city and am eager to host!
