CURRENT MISSION

Trying to find the fire.

ABOUT ME

I just quit my job as a TV reporter at a big network in Canada. If you want some background on that decision, check out my blog. I guess now I'm looking for the important things in life.

PHILOSOPHY

I just voluntarily became homeless and unemployed. I've never felt more free. I'm looking now for the path to effecting direct and positive change. I need to find my passion. Meantime I subscribe to principles of non-attachment, honesty, and giving people the benefit of the doubt.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just started. I promise it'll be interesting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Since leaving Quebec City and heading West, I've suddenly remembered how many friends I have, all over the place.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think I just did it - walking away from the golden handcuffs.
