CURRENT MISSION

Prolongue my escape from the south pacific and see how the other half lives. Well, other 90% I guess.

ABOUT ME

Currently I am travelling around Canada and the United States, taking it all in, seeing where pop civilization was born. I have met many people, from First Nations folk on reservations, to seal hunters of the north, to indie music babes, to chilled out yoga instructors.

I have just finished a huge chunk of my life - full time university - and now I am enjoying reading novels again, writing, and meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

Most people are good humans. Family and friends are the most important people in my life. I like to spend money on good food, but am bad at spending it on other things. I am searching for how to be a happy person in this world and what kind of contribution I can make.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have just joined couch surfing, and am interested in getting more involved. I have a beautiful home in New Zealand, in which I can host people when they come down that way.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, I have just had one experience - staying with a brother of a friend in Montreal, who happens to be a couch surfer himself. He put me on to joining up and getting more involved. We have had a great time going out for poutine, coffee and having great discussions about navigating this capitalist world with full awareness of it.

教，学，和分享

Let's have more conversations about the environment and our place in this world. But let's take it with a grain of salt. Hey, I'm writing this on a computer which was made by one of the most successful American companies ever.
