About Me

CURRENT MISSION

PHILOSOPHY

One of my favourite quotes is an excerpt from a speech by F.D.R. called 'The man in the arena.' "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've never couch surfed before but I went hitching last August across Van Couver Island and met some really good people. One guy who gave us a ride, later cooked us a meal and let us stay in his tree house. The next day he took us all all the way to the start of a trail we were heading for.
I'd like to help out travelers in the same way that I experienced.
