Overview
About Me
I like FOOOD :D I'm young, ambitious, and curious about the world! I love traveling and meeting new people. I'm often the crazy guy who will smile at everyone and if you look interesting enough will randomly start a conversation. I like learning, and have a passion for pursuing the truth (this can be applied quite generally in my life). I have a knack for understanding politics and what is going on in the world and enjoy sharing my research with people.
I was born and raised in Canada. I have worked in quite a few different industries; from financial to construction to IT. I originally wanted to be a lawyer and thus studied law for a couple years before I decided to get an IT degree and work with computers.
Between work and chores I'm a pretty well rounded person and enjoy doing a variety of things ranging from outdoor fun to lazy days spent watching movies or playing video games.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I eventually plan on traveling to every country on earth and I'm working on it! Meanwhile, I love meeting people from every corner of the world as it provides a great opportunity to learn about their culture and traditions, not to mention a potentially awesome time! I enjoy showing people around and showing off my city - I know all the gems in the GTA (especially when it comes to food).
What a better way to gain some travel karma ;)
Interests
I LOVE food and eating! I'm also a great chef myself when I'm not too lazy to cook :)
I like watching movies and some shows on my lazy days
I absolutely love nature, so that means camping/hiking/nature walks, etc.
I have a soft spot for animals, I think they're all awesome in their own unique ways
I enjoy helping people (feeding the poor, volunteering in health and dental fields to those who do not have access, etc.)
Who doesn't love to travel - Something I think everyone can relate to, the thrill of exploring somewhere new (especially in a different country)
Meeting new and sociable people is always interesting :) So many different personalities
Computers & Technology - I'm pretty tech-savvy and am usually up to date on the newest technologies. I can sometimes be a nerd.
I actually am interested in ALOT of things... however writing them all down here is not one of them and it would take too long.... did I mention how much I love food?!?

Music, Movies, and Books
Music - Honestly this is so variable depending on the setting
Movies - I like way too many. I would say the only genres I don't enjoy would be Horror (they're way too cheesy and never scare me anyways) and Romance (what guy likes romance....)
Books - Used to read a book a day when I was younger and had more time to spare. I wish I had the time to read fiction books but unfortunately whatever reading I do now is usually non-fiction to inform myself on a topic or pickup a new skill.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I do amazing things ALL THE TIME! :D
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach any of the skills I have acquired over the course of my life - really way too many to list
I have TOO MUCH to learn and only one life - Anything you can teach me I would be happy to learn :)
Share - I love to share knowledge and FOOD (I don't think I emphasized enough how much I love eating... it's really a miracle I'm not fat)
What I Can Share with Hosts
