CURRENT MISSION

Do Epic Shit

ABOUT ME

I am always itching for social justice and down for adventure. I work in the brewing industry. Relocating to Dublin from the Canadian East Coast.

PHILOSOPHY

Building a better world, one couch at a time!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By hosting folks and showing them something new, by staying with folks, by meeting new people, and by and helping build this ever-growing and awesome network.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My former roommates and I (in Ottawa) hosted guests from Australia, France, Germany, Switzerland, the US and Canada. We also hosted a huge number of our friends, fellow students, and fellow activists at my former collective house over the span of six years (2009-2014).

I couch-surfed while traveling across Canada and down the US West Coast in 2009 (and informally couch-surf quite often with friends and fam). I also stayed with a CS friend (who I had hosted twice in Canada) in Leipzig, Germany in 2012.

More recently, my partner and I hosted a band from Ottawa, ON, a CSer from Edmonton, a group of three exchange students from MTL who were from Belgium and Germany, and a couple of recently graduated students from Belgium. I also stayed with some friends and family while doing a month long trip around Europe in Fall 2015.
