Long-time entrepreneur and exercise-enthusiast. After many years grinding in isolation I'm ready to have fun in the sun with the global community again.

I'm a bit of a nihilist but in a good way:
if nothing really matters, we are free to pursue what we please. And what I please is to move my body in many exciting ways, use my brain in many creative ways and meet many interesting people along the way.

let's play!

Teach, Learn, Share

Happy to show guests around the resort and local community.
Barrie, right beside Innisfil, is the "metropolitan" hub in central Ontario (north of Barrie is cottage country, south of Barrie is the greater Toronto area.)
Barrie sprawls around Lake Simcoe, offering a lot of water and water-adjacent activities.
There are still quite a few farms in the area to get fresh, local produce from.
(Local breweries, too.) And just on the other side of the highway is a sky diving school, if that tickles your fancy.

I can show you how to dance, yoga, swim, run and lift weights.
I can take you kayaking, canoeing and nature hiking.

Like gardening? You can help me tend to the tomatoes and herbs I'm growing on my balcony.
Have a small business? I can help you identify ways to make it more valuable.
