I have hosted my place in Vancouver and organized hikes and road trips for many years. After a long break with traveling and focusing on my tour company https://www.naturephotohikes.com, I have recently moved to Squamish (the adventure capital of Canada!) and now organizing hikes and hosting my place to outdoors and photography enthusiasts. Here are some photos from previous hikes I organized on CS: https://www.flickr.com/photos/vancouvercouch/albums.

ABOUT ME

I'm Canadian but grew up in five different countries and currently living in Squamish, BC after spending over 25 years in Vancouver. I've traveled to 60+ countries (only continent left to visit is Antarctica), am always up for meeting new people, sharing experiences and building new communities.
