My name is Joshua O'Grady and I am a Canadian male who loves travelling and intensely deep lover of literally everything imaginable minus Eggs, man I hate eggs ;) I love meeting new people everyday and seeing new places through their eyes. Life is to short to not make new friends daily and have the experience to learn something from them! I have a bag of hilarious tales and crazy adventures to share with anyone and everyone and take everyday to its fullest. Laughing over life changing encounters, stupid mistakes or any topic really gets me so passionate!

I started a Recruitment Firm/ Head Hunting company in Ottawa just over a year ago and am super passionate about helping people find work, companies find talent. I am currently looking to try and start something cool in Athens, Greece to help the people and businesses survive this economic change. I have been here for 1 week now and I love it but don't really know too many people!

I was raised with 4 sisters and a momma bear therefore I am quite versatile in with boys/ girls. Growing up playing immense levels of sports as a lad to coming home to to a castle of women gave me the best of both worlds. I love everyone and carry nothing but respect.

My favourite game to play in life is "let's see what happens" which involves no plans and no direction. You just gotta see what happens!

Love for sports, family, obsessed with music and a promise that I will be the most positive god damn person you ever meet! If you love to laugh, trust in a good person and have a good buddy on your side, let me the hell in your life! lol

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have found the best way to understand a new country/ city/ village or place of any nature is through the eyes of those who live within it. Meeting people who are from a specific place I am travelling is far beyond amazing overstaying in a hotel.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am obsessed with music. I have seen 70 different shows in the last 12month so I can definitely help you out with some good tracks!

Absolutely love to cook and have wine. Sometimes too much wine but that comes with just splendid chats.

I love everything from Indie Rock to Rap to Dance Floor Grooves to Acoustic. I am a music junkie who could share more knowledge than you would know what to do with!

Huge fan of classic disney movies, romantic comedies (Love Actually & Serendipity) and a range of literature from renown authors such as Chuck Palahniuk to James Frey to Robin Sharma.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I gave up the fork for Lent. 40 days and 40 nights... no fork. Beat that.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about how to start a business to how Canadians deal with the freezing winters. From every sport imaginable to politics to the wild world according to a dreamer and a big trivia question fanatic.

From Beach Tennis, Fitness, Paddle Ball to everything North American.

My biggest strength is being wild on the dance floor or putting smiles on peoples faces. Love that shit.

I love life and all its components.
