About Me

Engineer and photographer with over 25 countries travelled.
I build and take care of city infrastructure for a living, particularly cycling infrastructure.

Love road trips and remote extreme landscapes.
Cyclist, motorcycle rider and city wanderer.

I believe kind > nice

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Was first introduced to couch surfing through a few friends in Toronto and have met so many interesting and wonderful people through them, so I decided to make my own profile and look at CS as an option for future trips.

Generally, I'm looking to connect with interesting folks.

Music, Movies, and Books

Way too many.
I always prefer live music over recordings, whenever possible. I attend most of the film festivals in Toronto and have memberships at most of the independent theatres.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Does stupid count as amazing?
I went to Iceland while that volcano was angry, on purpose.
Or there was that time we had to get evacuated from the Thar dessert in the middle of the night during a thunder storm.
Best birthday. Ever.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: Do you want photography lessons (do you need a headshot?) Want to learn how to use your fancy camera on a mode other than "auto"?

Learn: Everything. ASL.

Share: A huge part of my job is public consultation - I can engage in conversation with anyone and I know the City extremely well.
