Hello all. My name is Will and I am living in Toronto as an consultant within FinTech. I love traveling and debates about life, philosophy, politics and basketball.

I will be hosting guests in downtown Toronto time to time. I have a comfortable sofa in the living room.

If I host you, I will be showing you cool neighbourhoods, restaurants, bars, and some fun things to do in Toronto.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Gives me a little faith in humanity to see a huge community of people willing to house strangers.

I'm very respectful, hygienic, quiet, clean. I'm very aware of the physical/emotional boundaries and will not cross any. I respect all people and cultures of different kinds.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy all kinds of music, some of my favourite musicians include The Strumbellas, The Lumineers, One Republic, Rachael Yamagata, Corinne Bailey Rae, Usher, Kanye West, Chance the Rapper, Lauryn Hill, Musiq Soulchild, Kyan, Jamie Foxx, Elvis Presley, Richard Marx, Glen Hansard, John Mayer, Jimmy Fontana.

I used to really enjoy fiction but sadly haven't found the time for it recently. I love political philosophy, sociology, and books in international affairs (sorry it's boring).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed a mountain in Ghana while wearing boat shoes and jeans. It's amazing because I survived.

Teach, Learn, Share

I basically find everything interesting to learn. From Geotech engineering to lactivism (google it), so feel free to share your knowledge with me.

I can share with you my knowledge on culture, politics, and history. If you want (on your vacation..haha) I can teach you how to play basketball or weight-lift (at the gym) or go for a run or bike ride with you.

I can teach you English and Korean.

Good conversations, fun companion if your willing to venture your own city with me.
