CURRENT MISSION

To get in touch with my inner gypsy

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in Edmonton, so the majority of my family and friends live here. I attended college where I studied psychology, but academia is not for me. Now I am working on improving my art in preparation for a Tattoo apprenticeship (which was postponed, stupid economy), and I'm preparing to become a world traveler. I have a ticket and a work visa for Australia, and will be exploring the land down under shortly. I have some crazy plans in the works for an exit from the southern hemisphere via the trans Siberian railway, but that plan is still in its infant stages. In other words, I'm taking a chance and just going where life takes me.

PHILOSOPHY

Try to go against the crowd every now and then.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Whenever possible I'll offer up a couch, and will gladly surf other couches without complaint. I would also like to do Haiku reviews, just for funsies.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met people surfing friends couches and heard very positive things about the whole experience. Hopefully this will change in the near future.

Interests

I'm a fan of most types of music, and when it comes to making music, I'm currently working on learning the harmonica and can maintain a beat on a hand drum when necessary (ie. beach fires) but not much else. I draw (part of that whole tattooing thing) and read, and am a half decent cook. I'm a huge fan of music festivals, and want to get involved with other outdoor activities, like surfing and diving. I want to meet new people and have some laughs and adventures.
