About Me

I live with my partner in Vancouver, Canada. All of my work revolves around the bicycle: as a mechanic, as a programs coordinator and as an educator.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I got into couch surfing during a 3500km bike tour from Vancouver Canada to LaPaz, Mexico years ago. I really enjoyed meeting folks who are open and I find that I learn the most about a place when I am with locals. I am about to adventure around Rio and Buenos Aires and would love to meet, stay with and learn from locals.
