About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To visit 50 countries before i turn 30

ABOUT ME

Canadian studying in Denmark for the spring semester with major travel ambitions. I am a very outgoing person, love to party, enjoy the outdoors, especially hiking and biking. Vikings are cool too. I have a bit of a sarcastic side and resort to jokes to get cheap laughs whenever necessary. Hence the viking joke.

PHILOSOPHY

Beer is proof that god loves us and wants us to be happy. Ben Franklin said that and he was one smart dude.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to use couch surfing to meet cool people in the places i go. It is my belief that you can get a much better experience in a place if you know the locals. I am sure most people who couch surf tend to agree. I am not actively looking to sleep on people's couches. I am more interested in getting a local experience.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far so good. Met some good people. Have yet to technically stay on someone's couch.

Interests

I like to dabble in a number of things. My interests grow day by day as the more of the world i see, the more things that intrigue me. I am a huge fan of playing and watching sports. I constantly desire to listen to music from a wide variety of genres, from hip hop to indie rock. I prefer films to TV, but generally find movies these days to be too long.

Music, Movies, and Books

I support all 3 as forms of entertainment. When traveling, i would rank them Books, Music, Movies in terms of necessity. Oh, you want to know my favourites? You will have to meet me to find that out.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro definitely tops the list. Living in Hong Kong, walking the Great Wall, snorkelling in Belize, Angkor Wat, everything i witnessed in Japan, hiking the Franz Jozef glacier in New Zealand. How can I pick 1 amazing thing when so many things i have done are so amazing?

Teach, Learn, Share

Other than my rapier wit and fantastic sense of direction, I can't offer that much. I could explain the machinations of Canadian electoral politics or the rules of hockey. I also have a mild understanding of space law.
