Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
My mission is to get a job in Vancouver and get my own place somewhere here
ABOUT ME
I'm a pretty cool guy. I like to help people and help the world. I moved to BC for a new life and a fresh start and it's been pretty awesome. But lately I've kinda ran out of luck because there's not much work here, or if there is I can't find it haha but I haven't given up my search. I'm pretty low on cash and just need a place to crash. I'm a cool, respectful and respectable guy and I like to help out around the house for people who let me crash by like cleaning the dishes or whatever needs to be done.
Would be really awesome to meet some new friends along the way too!
PHILOSOPHY
Never let what you can't do get in the way of what you can do.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Well, I have just started using this website, but in my previous experience of sleeping on peoples couches I guess I have contributed to the community by not being a douche and cleaning up after myself and being respectful to the hosters. I've also hosted someone from couchsurfing before because one of my friends referred the person to me using my cell number. So that was pretty cool. He was a nice guy!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I haven't used this site yet, but since I've been in British Columbia [since July 22nd], I've been blessed with coming into contact with a lot of generous people who are okay with landing me a helping hand. When I realized there was no work in Kelowna I moved out here to Vancouver where I have been for just over a week now.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I have been to the Kokanee Glacier and it was incredible, never seen beauty like that before.
An amazing thing I've done? I guess, I started an international group called Erase the Hate over facebook when I was 17. Today i has around 5500 members from 40 countries with representatives from 18 countries. Also have hosted a peace rally in Toronto through the group.
Teach, Learn, Share
Well, I've been told I'm a pretty good teacher. I have studied the world, humanity and the stars since I was about 8 years old so I can talk about politics, international relations, geography, evolution, species, nature, environment, space, and a couple other things for quite a long time. I seem to have a knack for getting people interested in things they otherwise wouldn't have been interested in.
Something I'd like to learn is how to not take things so seriously haha
