About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Adventuring around, living lightly.

ABOUT ME

Well let's see here. I'm quite fond of coffee and tea. I love to sit down and have a cup of orange pekoe tea with milk and honey. I like to read by myself, and usually this activity comes in intense highs and lows. I'll read 4 or 5 books at a time, and then I'll go for a few months without it. I'm quite easygoing and I'd like to say open-minded. I especially like learning new things, especially food and sports. My most recent food tasting experience was pork tongue with shallots. Not my favourite thing, but not too bad. My newest sport trial was gliding, which I can tell you was quite exciting.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to shoot a basketball, and the fundamentals of basketball. I also know a bit of yoga, which is helpful after a long day. I can take you for a run or a bike ride or some kayaking. I can cook fairly well, and you could read my book stashes. I'll make you tea, and tell you all about Canada.
