About Me

Just a 24 year old life loving Canadian fella with a immeasurable passion for all things outdoors.
I work as a Firefighter/ERT, and I like to pass my free time dabbling in alpine sports, riding my motorcycle or curling up on my couch with a good cup of coffee in my hands and my nose in a book.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I feel like Couchsurfing is an amazing way for me to meet and interact with locals and fully immerse myself in the culture. Also it's a great way to save money that would otherwise be spent on overpriced accommodations.

Too many awesome experience to name just one! If you put me up for the night I would love to tell you all the stories you can handle.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: Ask away and I'll be happy to help if I can
Learn: Anything you think is interesting or helpful!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Hopefully a positive experience and a rad evening full of laughs and smiles! I can cook tolerably well, stumble my way through a song song or two on the guitar and have enough hilariously embarrassing stories to fill the better part of an evening.
