CURRENT MISSION

I'm out to get to know the world.

ABOUT ME

"They said you were weird, but I said, 'Damien is just Damien'".
Background actor working in Vancouver, Canada.

PHILOSOPHY

It can be summed up in this quote by The Coquette: "The trick is being able to laugh at the abyss because you recognize the freedom it affords you". My life philosophy is an answer to the question why: because one day I'll be dead.

The complementary tenet of my philosophy that guides my actions towards others is primum non nocere, or "first, do no harm". To quote wikipedia: "given an existing problem, it may be better not to do something, or even to do nothing, than to risk causing more harm than good."

I know how to improvise a meal pretty easily. I have a few personal recipes to pass along.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted a few travelers when I lived in Montreal but haven't been very active since.

Intereses

Music. I love music. I do mashups: jackjack.link/music.

I just like learning. I want to rely less on technology and learn more about the wild side of life.
