About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Minimize and survive Global Warming

ABOUT ME

The best thing for me, is some sort of quest, which involves long difficult travels with natural wonders and continuous new human interactions.

Learning through any medium is one of my main passions. Specifically, music, anything to do with science, or any other aspect of culture.

I aspire to live a sustainable lifestyle.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm far too inexperienced to give myself, or anyone else, advice on how to live, so I continue to learn.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am still fairly new to this community.

However I've attended a CS gathering in St. John's NL, and I've stayed with and truly enjoyed the company of couchsurfers in Winnipeg and St. John's.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Our (me and my fellow quester) experience in Winnipeg was unbelievable and really opened our eyes to the network. Risa, took care of us, she was always up for being friendly and for making people around her feel comfortable.

She seems to think we were courteous, and somewhat interesting guests.

Music, Movies, and Books

I can like any and all types of music. In particular music played on physical instruments (as opposed to electronic) and in particular music played by very experienced and skilled players (like Chris Potter, Aaron Parks, The Bad Plus, Joshua Redman, Kurt Rosenwinkel, Joni Mitchell). Also, anything funky.
