CURRENT MISSION

To Live.

ABOUT ME

Not so good at describing myself, still trying to figure that one out for the most part. I grew up in a small village called Herring Cove, which is just outside of Halifax, Nova Scotia. I enjoy all sorts of things, I'll most likely try anything once. I want to live a simple low stress life, but I don't mind hard work. I have spent my last two summers tree planting in B.C and Alberta, If you don't know much about it the company I work for is http://www.folklorecontracting.ca/. Basically you wake up from your tent, eat, Plant, eat and then go to sleep and work 5 days on 1 day off, its hard work but simple and can be really fun at times. At the same time it can also be hell, bugs, rain, hail, snow, bears and you get paid by the tree so it has its hardships as well. I enjoy learning new things and meeting new people. I'm a pretty relaxed guy and people say I'm decently nice and pretty easy going. Also I tend to be a horrid and lazy typer, so please excuse any confusion you may come across. Its a work in progress.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a a riddle wrapped in a mystery, within an enigma. Strangely enough, it works out when you let it happen.
