CURRENT MISSION

sing to the roots of trees

ABOUT ME

I've lived four or five lives out of my allotted nine so far. I've been a philosophy student, a pilgrim, a gardener, a builder, a community organizer and a yoga teacher. I kickstarted an album last year, full of sad and silly songs about love and life and finding out that God is a marvelously interesting person. I'm deeply committed to the philosophy that everyone is inherently good, and cruelty, though it can be immense, is ultimately a surface defect.

PHILOSOPHY

Breathe. Sing. Breathe. Pray. Breathe.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My brother and I started our CS careers cooking and cleaning at the the Montreal Couchsurfing collective for the week after the site crashed back in 2006. We've since surfed across the country and hosted wherever we had a bed to share.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
