I love getting to know new people and new places. I don't party or drink too much these days (though there are always exceptions to the rule) as I enjoy the slower paced life, with a good balance of energies. I like good conversations, good books, and rich experiences.

I’m a Newfoundlander living a digital nomad life .

I love biking, hiking, yoga, meditation, grooving to tunes, ecstatic dance, and I (try not to) take myself too seriously.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing to ride the waves of some friendly folks' couches, and hopefully make some new pals in my travels! From experience, as many others can attest to, linking up with locals is absolutely the best way to travel.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Check out my Spotify, I have 150+ playlists for any mood or situation! @nickpickle
Film: Anything beyond the mainstream "superhero" types of films. Anything that expresses something profound, beautiful, heartbreaking, or joyful. I love experiencing films with others rather than solo, as it creates a richer memory.
Books: Recent favourites include:

- Anatomy of the Spirit
- Antifragile
- Existential Kink
- No Bad Parts
- The Energy of Money
- The War of Art
- The Biology of Belief
- Any yogic or Zen Buddhist texts

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent a summer on exchange in South Korea (drank more beer and soju than I thought possible)
Survived multiple cycling accidents
Learning how to heal and evolve intentionally through harnessing the power of my mind and spirit
I once biked by an unkempt, smirking Dennis Quaid sitting outside a Starbucks as he finished a muffin.
I recently made a delicious sweet potato soup.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a certified reiki practicioner and yoga teacher and can teach various styles of asana, pranayama, and meditation.
I could also show you how to shoot a basketball

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you how to calm your mind, bring stillness, and a little slice of peace in between the everyday motions of life. I also have a love of music and I love sharing playlists and songs with people who share that same love.
