CURRENT MISSION

Be me.

ABOUT ME

I'm a counselor for a not-for-profit organization in London, ON. I had a bunch of random life changes over the last number of months that has led me into the space I occupy now, trying to learn new things, be around new people and experience life in a different way. Used to be on autopilot and have recognized that I can't live like that anymore. Trying to be open-minded and learn.

PHILOSOPHY

Explore, learn, repeat.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet people and get more comfortable with interacting with people I don't know in preparation for a year long backpacking tour sometime in the next year or so.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like basically all music. If I can sing along, dance, or it makes me feel some sort of emotional connection I like it

Some people would call me a movie snob I guess. I follow directors. I like good writing and visually/auditory appealing movies. Good video and sound editing makes me happy.

Read lots of random stuff, just whatever catches my eye. Main focus right now is Murakami and Frazen with a dash of sci-fi or fantasy thrown in.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Been me. Not something I`m used to doing. Most recent amazing thing was to randomly road trip/camp out to St. John's Newfoundland because I could. I'm trying to get out of my comfort zone.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a half decent cook.

my main educational focus is on counseling, addictions, social justice, criminal justice system. That kind of thing. Not everyone's ideal conversation or learning points but I'm well versed in lots of these subjects. You ever want to talk about social policy I'm your man haha.
