About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see and photograph the world. Truly, madly & deeply!

ABOUT ME

I am a photographer. I am a traveller. I am a day dreamer. I am a go getter. I am a back seat eco-worrior. I am a life loving, fun finding, frill seeking, smile making, confidence giving, chest thumping, thigh slapping, high-fiving, heart warming, kind of guy!

PHILOSOPHY

Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind. - Dr. Seuss.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Sadly so far I have only had the pleasure of enjoying other people's couches as I am on the road. When I return home, whenever that may be, I will be welcoming fellow nomadic wanderers into my humble abode.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far I have surfed in NYC & Montreal, both of which have been fantastical! I've also been pretty active on the group community side of things for each place I have visited, which has been an awesome way of connecting with local and other travelling people.

Interests

Photography, film, music, reading, learning, languages, travel, socialising, outdoor activities, adrenalin, snowboarding/skiing, keeping fit in general, errrrr I think that's it. Oh, cooking, eating, coffee, people watching, booze and lots of laughing!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been lucky enough to do and see quite a number of amazing things. But what I'm more excited about, are the amazing things I'm yet to do and see.

I could teach you to speak English, if you don't already. I also know quite a bit about photography and photoshop.
