About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To make the world a more magical place

ABOUT ME

I'm a consultant on a sabbatical with my beautiful wife Christina (a real estate marketer) taking 6 months off to go travel the world together. People describe us as nice calm easy going and we like jokes. I did a PhD in Vancouver, and also studied in Sweden (Umea) and Holland (Maastricht) and have travelled extensively through Europe and North America. Following my Masters I did a 6-month Eastern European roadtrip which was amazing!

I'm very easy to have around and everyone seems to like me (or don't tell me that they don't if they don't...)

PHILOSOPHY

I loooooove putting sauce on things
Mayonaise, Ketchup, Mustard, Yogurt, BBQ, Hot, Chutney, Ranch, Caesar, Apple, yummmmmmmmmmmm

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Used to host quite a bit when I was doing my Masters in Maastricht but since coming back to Vancouver my living situation has prevented it. Looking forward to my next city and hoping to host again!
