About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Living the Life that makes me most happy and helping other be happy too

ABOUT ME

Born near the great lakes and moved out to western Canada when i was a youth to enjoy the mountains and coast line. When I travel, I enjoy meeting the people of the countries I am visiting and learn from the way they function in this world. I like to be active one of my favorite things is board riding. Any kind of boards from surf to snow. Hiking, Mtn. Biking, fishing, tennis, and other outdoor stuff. Adult Update: I now have a wonderful family with 2 boys(3 mnths & 3 yrs) with the best partner in the world that I have been traveling with for over 10 years.

PHILOSOPHY

We travel from life time to lifetime as souls gaining experiences that we learn and grow from. Material things don´t matter in the end. The important things are what you learn when your going at it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to learn other cultures and take the positives out of it back to my own country and teach other people about how the people that may live 10,000 miles away do things better. Also give one to others as is given to you.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have slept in friends kitchens, couches and spare bed rooms some times for months to eaither to keep on snowboarding or keep the traveling experiance alive. I have also done lots of Wwoofing around New Zealand. It is a great way to contribute back to the owner of the roof over your head. So if you need some work done around your place while i am there you just let me know!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Snowboarding in tit deep powder snow, surfing waves with lots of locals in many countries some of my favorites have been Fiji, Morocco, New Zealand, Wwoofing, working at a helicopter skiing lodge, road trip down to California and going to Coachella and the list is growing everyday.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach board riding of all sorts and how to fix things. I guess i am handy that kind of way. My mind is open to as many possible new things as i can cram in there. So if got something that is really rad, I am all ears and eyes. I have a plethora of stories from different parts of the world that i would just love to share! I have a knack for fixing just about anything and pride my self to be a professional trail builder.
