About Me

ABOUT ME

I am adventurous and always looking for new experiences. I enjoy backcountry hiking, ski touring, bicycling, music and trying anything new. I enjoy discussing topics beyond small talk and I am very calm, open-minded and respectful.
I'm particularly interested in sustainability and how it is interconnected with the world's other socio-economic issues.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted a few people, slept on some couches and attended a few events. All were great experiences! Met some very fun and cool people and really enjoyed it. Love to have travelers over, hear about their experiences and have people that like to get out and do things.

Interests

Cycling, sustainability, hiking, backcountry skiing, playing piano, board games, tobogganing, hockey, partying, and trying new things :)

As a career, I'm looking to be involved with renewable energy or net zero home design

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hitchhiked from Vancouver to Los Angeles to play in a 3000+ person ultimate frisbee tournament.

Teach, Learn, Share

Love to teach people about backcountry camping. I enjoy jamming (play piano). At some point I should probably learn to surf.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories from around the world, philosophical thoughts and I'd gladly cook you a meal!
