Former van-dwelling gypsy, explorer, business owner, and skydiver, looking for the next adventure and a place to call home. I'm not one for partying, but I'll stay up all night for a good conversation. Currently looking to connect with new people, see some new places, and maybe find my place in the world along the way. antidepressed.substack.com

Warum ich auf Couchsurfing bin
I don't have a couch to offer at the moment as I'm spending the year travelling, but will be happy to host when I find home, wherever home ends up being. Will be spending much of 2024 exploring Vancouver Island, with a couple of detours to Romania and the UK in the works.
Musik, Filme und Bücher
I'll listen to and read just about anything that Robert Evans puts out, and yes, I'm very bitter and jaded as a result. I tend to listen to podcasts more than I read these days, but I'll still pick up a Michael Pollan book, or a good book about farming. I love keeping up with US politics, that country is a very entertaining dumpster fire. Music varies from jazz (Mingus, Duke, Grant Green) to metal (Zeal and Ardor, old Soikwork, Arch Enemy, Iron Maiden) to the occasional bit of rap, r&b, and pop (Aesop Rock, Roots, catchy synth song du jour). When I do watch something, it'll often be a wrestling documentary (Dark Side of the Ring) or Rupaul's Drag Race.
Eine tolle Sache, die ich getan habe
I saved a life once. It's a fun story of drugs, trauma, broken glass, police, and running around naked.
Lehren, Lernen, Teilen
Have a bike that needs fixing? Maybe a household repair? Let me help! What's the point of having all these skills if I can't share them?
Was ich mit Hosts teilen kann
I love to cook and will happily cook for you. I love nights of good food and good conversation, getting to know people, sharing ideas and experiences.
Meine Interessen
I love to build and ride bikes, and spend a lot of time volunteering in Vancouver teaching folks how to fix their own bikes. I also teach folks how to ice skate. Along the way I've also been a carpenter, jeweller, and content writer.
