About Me

CURRENT MISSION

finding many homes and many friends to share them with

ABOUT ME

I've been pretty involved with community housing scene in Halifax, Nova Scotia for the past 3 or 4 years and really into the circus and DIY communities around those parts, I plant trees in the summer and often spend a lot of time traveling in the autumn and winter. I've had the chance to meet a lot of great people from all over Cananda, Europe and the USA and am really grateful for having had myself opened to opportunities to get to know other communities like the one a grew up in. I'm all about personal freedom and moderation. mutual respect and open communication is really important to me, I love hanging out with artists and musicians. i'm really easily brought up by the creative vibes of others.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to be open to the many possible perspectives that i am fortunate to come across, and i try not to force myself or others into perceiving the world in any specific way :)

through surfing i've got to experience the other side, being put up in cities all across this homeland of mine has been illuminating in the realm of understanding the compassion strangers can have for each other.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really enjoy reading, novels and non-fiction, really anything that kind pushes me to think about things in a different way. I have been greatly affected by Carlos Castaneda and Terence Mckenna. also desmond morris, bill mollison and david holgrom are great.

old martial arts movies. movies with subtitles. the wind that shakes the barely

anything from trip-hop to bluegrass to hindustani bangra music

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i've been all up and down and every which way across this giant turtle of an island, the most amazing thing i've seen was probably the massive expanse of wilderness in Alaska, and for a treeplanter, thats really saying something, I operate pretty much on vast expanses, but Alaska, man, you could hike a lifetime in one valley.
