Overview
About Me
I see, smell, hear, taste, listen, and feel and let the impressions marinate in curiosity, laughter, and contemplation.
I love to travel, and i have an insatiable thirst for good conversation and good times.
I work in video production, with the odd side job not related to it. Naturally, this makes me quite interested in film and media and art in all of its mediums.
I do not host folks from BC! So don't send me requests if you are headed over from vancouver for the weekend and want a free place to stay with your wife and kids.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love the excitement of meeting locals whilst I travel and when I am at home and hosting I love to be immersed in the culture of other travelers whilst also simultaneously having the chance to give back to those around me.
I have spent many a cold night over the years sleeping rough whilst on adventures around the globe and I know what it means to the soul to be immersed in a welcoming family of people.
