Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Making each day count for something.
ABOUT ME
I live alone. I have a cat. I had a dog but he passed away recently. I miss him. I like to read. I don't smoke. I ride a bike everywhere. Sometimes I do yoga. I spend most of my time in Kamloops. In the Summer, I leave town as much as possible.
I like music a lot. I host a radio show, entitled This Microphone Smells! on Monday nights at 8pm. https://www.facebook.com/ThisMicrophoneSmells?ref=stream will take you there.
PHILOSOPHY
I try to lead a sustainable existence, in what I eat and how I get around. I believe in a creator or universal connecting life force and I have a strong moral code. I am grateful for every new day, I get to experience. No Bad Days.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING:
I have a spare room, which I offer to wayward CS'ers. IT IS NOT FOR RENT.
I host a radio show on Monday nights. Because of my radio show, MONDAY'S DON'T WORK FOR ME. I prefer to host Tuesdays, Thursdays, sometimes Fridays, and on the weekend. I don't have a car and bus service is limited here, so you will have to get here under your own power. I will not host you if your arrival time is too late for me. I will show you around if I am able.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I hitch hiked across Canada during the summer of 2004 and stayed on the couches of friends of mine in Calgary AB, Brandon Manitoba, Kitchener ONT, and Scarbourough ONT for various lengths of time.
I have had dozens of people stay with me so far...I am starting to lose track...
Interests
I like to travel. I desire to surf. I like going to concerts and watching movies. I enjoy spending time with my friends, and making new ones. I like to read and write poetry. I like playing video games and reading comic books. And yoga, of course. I desire to see the world.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like comic books and am interested to see what happens in Marvel Comics on-going story lines and DC as well. I am currently reading This Book is Full of Spiders and Shaman. I've been listening to FIDLAR and Dilly Dally, lately.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I went surfing for the first time in Tofino. I went to Chile. I swam with Sea Turtles in Maui. I walked through an ice cave on Franz Josef Glacier, in New Zealand.I spent four months backpacking around Central America by myself.I survived High School.
