CURRENT MISSION Live in the Unknown. ABOUT I grew up in the Alberta prairies & East Coast of Canada and later California. I love music, nature, meditation, and travel. I've been traveling now for 12 years. I used to teach yoga in New Zealand. I was a professional musician in my early 20s, then I gave up everything and lived in India for 5 years. I studied anthropology in University. I've practised and lived with a Zen master on and off for the last twelve years. These days I work as a commercial fisherman. I'm part of a Mystic Folk ensemble named Dieux. Hear our music: https://dieux.bandcamp.com

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I've couched-surfed throughout North America, Europe, Africa, New Zealand, and India. Many of the hosts I've stayed with became good friends who really made traveling a richer experience. I love hosting too & showing travellers around my community. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Couchsurfing has always been positive, fun, and humbling for me.

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem/am
Once, upon the instruction of my zen master, for no particularly identifiable reason, I swam 10 kilometres directly out into the open ocean, well beyond the point of seeing land. And then, I turned around and starting swimming back. I spent about 9 hours at sea. While floating out in the vast ocean, I thought I might die that day. Deep down, though, I knew I would return to shore safely: I was motivated to get back and eat some really delicious apples I had waiting in my fridge. None of it made sense and it was absolutely absurd, and yet it freed me very deeply.

Moje zainteresowania
Whenever I practice Osho Dynamic Meditation every day, I am the most free I've been since childhood. When I was in Slovenia I discovered that Slavoj Žižek is a hilarious philosopher, and I have much love for the great rebellious guru Osho. “The ability to observe without evaluating is the highest form of intelligence.” ~ J. Krishnamurti I love to cook, and to spend time in nature.
