ABOUT ME

I'm a laid back guy who is very much in to food and music. I'm an outdoors person and love snowboarding, skateboarding and just being outside in general.

PHILOSOPHY

Take it easy and just see what you see, not what everyone says you should.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Waiting 8 hours at Lollapalooza in the heat for Rage Against the Machine. At the very front getting crushed and dealing with more human body sweat than i'd care to mention. It was awesome, the group of people really stuck together and had a good time, even when we were nearly killing each other haha. Being at the front of nearly 70,000 people for a concert you flew 2000 Kms to see a band you absolutely love was amazing and i will never forget it. Being sprayed with water never felt so good.

Also the view from the mountains while snowboarding is life changing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach anyone who wants to learn how to cook, or some new stuff they don't know. Even if it's using a knife. I'd love to learn new ways to cook from you as well.
I'd love to learn Guitar as well as work on Bass
Any languages.
