About Me
CURRENT MISSION
swooping in on the Emerald Isle Dec 15-24!
ABOUT ME
I'm a fun and outgoing person. I love to travel, but even when I'm in one place for a while - I think we're all on a spiritual journey.
Right now I live in paradise, on the west coast of Vancouver Island, at the end of the trans-Canada highway, a place of ancient forests, wolves, cougars, bears, endless beaches with no-one on them, and wild and crazy people!
Lately I've taken up some photography, and enjoy doodling, creative writing, making stuff..
I like to explore everything life has to offer, have fun, and find new ways to be of service to my fellow human beings and the Earth.
My brother described me as, "a goofball with a purpose"
PHILOSOPHY
Shoot for the stars, travel to the moon, never stop changing and challenging yourself, and enjoy every minute..
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
hang out only for now
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I did a nine month road trip all over Canada and the western USA in 2010-11, and couchsurfed the whole time - then I joined couchsurfing! ;)
In the 90's I hitchhiked all over Canada and Europe, and crashed on peoples couches, camped, and goofed off.
Interests
Nature - swimming, hiking, exploring, anything really.
I read a lot, love interesting conversation, healthy food, and passionate people..
I work a lot and volunteer a lot of time for the environment and my community. I spend most of my free time outdoors, hanging out with friends, or communing with nature.
I meditate and do yoga, eat healthy, and really enjoy a beer with friends on the beach over a campfire, or getting out. I've even been caught dancing a few times (all night)..
