Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I'm on couchsurfing because I want to meet people who share the same passion for exploring that I have. Every person I've met through here has been an absolute wonder.
Music, Movies, and Books
I love all music, some books, and a few movies. My favourite film is Forrest Gump. When the movie network had it on repeat for a few days I may have watched it more than 5 times. He just keeps on keeping on, which I think is pretty ace. Some current musical favourites include: Royal Canoe, HIGHS, Tribe Called Red, The RAA, and Ratatat
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I cycled from Victoria, BC to Sintaluta, SK over a month and a bit with my best friend in the world, Jess. It was a magical experience that we continued by car to the northern reaches of MB, QC and NL.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach a few outdoor sports such as archery, rock climbing, and canoeing. Not many of those pack down well, but usually wherever I'm living I can do at least one of those. Also I'm a dab hand at fire building!
What I Can Share With Hosts
A whole bunch of recipes! Not to mention a usually have a book or two I'd be willing to pass on.
My Interests
Camping, fixing things, cooking, climbing, canoeing, reading, writing, science, bears, teaching, learning, music, beer, people, coffee, and generally being outside.
