My name is Tyler, I was born and raised in beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia. I've lived in Vancouver my whole life, and enjoyed every minute of it. I'm currently working as a marketing and sales coordinator for AAA Flooring, and I teach baseball to kids on the side as well.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I'm always excited to meet new people - I find meeting new people while traveling leads to some of the most fun and unexpected times while you are away from home. I look forward to hearing interesting stories and experiences from people I meet.

兴趣

I'm a huge fan of sports - I played baseball my whole life growing up, and played 2 years of college baseball in BC. While I do love baseball, my true love is hockey (and my hometown Vancouver Canucks). I have played hockey since I was a young kid, it is definitely one of my passions.

I'm also an avid music fan, and listen to a wide variety of genres as you will see below. Some of my best memories involve seeing bands that I love live, and to me there is nothing better than going to a music festival with friends, and catching a weekend's worth of amazing live music.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

New Years Eve 2012 - I got out of my comfort shell, left North America for the first time, and visited one of my best friends in Hong Kong with 6 other good friends of mine. The trip ended up being one of the best experiences in my life, and is something I will always remember.

The culture shock of being in Asia for the first time was awesome, and it led me to make it my goal to travel more.

教，学，和分享

Teach:
I actually do teach baseball and have for the past 8 years. I understand this is not practical but it would be what I'm best at teaching. I'll work on honing my craft in another, more practical area however

Learn:
Like I mentioned above, I am a huge music junkie. If there is anything I want to learn, it is how to produce music that I myself (who is very picky) would love to listen to. I guess you could say it's a goal

Share:
Experiences and stories. The main reason I got onto couch surfing is to meet awesome people while i'm away from home. To be able to share good conversation with hospitable people is always something I look forward to.
