About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To save the world
ABOUT ME
I'm an adventurous, funny, environmental, martial artist marathoner on a quest to save the world.
I am doing a marathon across Canada to collect funds to build an green-safe not-for-profit electric company.
For more info visit http://www.gwof.ca.
Once I finish I hope to host as well but for the moment as I'm not home I unfortunately can't host.
PHILOSOPHY
Someone has to get stuff done. It might as well be me.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
In 2008 I started running across Canada starting from Glace Bay, Nova Scotia to White Rock, BC. Unfortunately I sprained my knee and am currently recuperating.
I was using this project to determine where I can find lodging on the way, to meet new people and hopefully do a lot of networking as well.
Now my couch is open for business.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I used couchsurfing a few times during my travels but have yet to host, feel free to drop me a line.
