ABOUT ME

I used to work in Vancouver as an associate at the largest bank-owned investment firm in Canada but quit my job in September 2012 so I could pursue a career in bicycles. I moved to Quadra Island to go to the Quadra Bike School with future plans to open up my own bicycle space in Vancouver. I like building up beautiful bicycles that serve as a mode of transportation and self expression. I hope to be able to share my bikes with you one day.

PHILOSOPHY

Just do it...twice

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As a very recent member I have yet to participate in the community. I am hoping to take part as a surfer on Hornby Island soon as I make my way back to Vancouver. Once home, I would be happy to host surfers coming through Vancouver.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Havent surfed or hosted before but my roomates and I were invited to a couchsurfer's home here on Quadra Island for Thanksgiving dinner this year. It was a wonderful and delicious experience to share a holiday with a surfers family and to meet some new friends

Interests

delicious food, building fixing riding bikes, scary movies, funny movies, musicals, live music, laughing lettuce, drinks with friends, beer pong, laughing til it hurts, and probably lots more stuff I haven't discovered yet.
