About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am currently in Barrie, Ontario, and managed to land a job in Toronto, starting 23rd March.

ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm an easy-going guy and I enjoy meeting new people and sharing experiences. I enjoy travelling but I'm hoping to stay in Toronto a while and concentrate on my career in Architectural Visualization for now.

PHILOSOPHY

Spending a year in Canada really opened my eyes to travelling, and I want to do so much more of it. There are so many places to see, and not enough time to do it.. So live for now and do whatever makes you happy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Me and a friend couchsurfed a few times on a road trip around Canada and the States, it's the best way to meet local people who can show you the best places to go in their town. We had some great times in Calgary and Seattle and met some amazing people.

Interests

Travelling, Snowboarding, Listening to music, playing guitar. Seeing new places and meeting new people. I like to draw when I find time.
