I am active in Ottawa's creative scene, with a focus on film and poetry.

Am active in activities in the gay and disability communities, for folks who find those things interesting.

I am a municipal employee with an interest in different cultures, beer/wine and cuisine :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new folks and showing them around Ottawa. Those of us that live here don't make proper use of local institutions (National Arts Centre, museums, Parliament, etc.) so it's nice to have motivations from others. Am also open to showing people cool bars, as well as arts and activists scenes. Oh, and if you want good cake, I know a place :)

Interests

- Visual arts
- Literary arts (poetry, short fiction, readings, crying about failed writing projects over beer)
- Drinking abovementioned beer (and vodka)
- Caffeine highs in fair trade coffee shops
- Traveling
- Gym
- Good classical
