My name is Richard, I was born and raised on the outskirts of a large city Calgary. I have 4 brothers all of which live in Calgary and were all within 1.5 years of one another.
I enjoy the outdoors, camping, quading, skiing, hiking, mountaineering, rock climbing and much more. I really enjoy sports (playing and watching) especially soccer. I played soccer and hockey growing up and my favourite teams are the Calgary Flames, Madrid and Cardiff FC.
I'm not a foodie but I enjoy company at meals and trying different types of cuisine. Conversation makes a meal for me and in general Ill eat anything.
Ive worked with children most my life as a gymnastics instructor but since graduating from university 4 years ago Ive been working in tourism as a guide.
I love life, enjoy meeting new people and exploring this great world. Adventures drive me!

Cheers,

Richard L.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Love to travel, explore, adventure and move around. Sharing experiences with seemingly strangers always turns out to be the best of times and Couch Surfers really helps bring like minded people together.

Music, Movies, and Books

I loveeeeeeeee Country music. We have many great artists in Canada I enjoy listening to but many of my favourite artists are American. I also enjoy some good Latin music like Bachata and Ballenato. Sometimes a little Reggaeton.

I'm into war movies, anything with action and or a little bit of suspense. Comedies are great but not my go to.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I rode a bull at a small town rodeo on Ometepe Island in Nicaragua.

Teach, Learn, Share

I worked as a gymnastics instructor most of my life. I also know lots about Canada's history and culture because for one I was born and raised there but I also work in tourism. I show people around western Canada for a living.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good energy, good stories, good manners, good adventure and good vibes.
