About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to find the ultimate maki roll... i'm hot on the trail i think

ABOUT ME

love to get out and see new things... i'm the type who loves to pull all nighters even if its just being out on a patio chatting it up with friends... i've been given a renewed view on healthy living and working out and that's a big part of my life now, i've only got one body and i'm tuning it to be best it can be (jeez that sounds like a nike ad)

PHILOSOPHY

Understand that no matter what you're going through right now, it will get better. You can't live life without hope. All the cliches are true, the light is at the end of the tunnel, you just have to have the drive to make it that far. I promise everything will be okay.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfed around quite a bit. Hosted manu fine folks so far. You can be the next.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed all provinces in Canada. From BC to Newfoundland. A couple of territories to go. I love our home and native land!

Interests

miscellaneous geekery... i love new toys and gadgets... wasting time is great as long you're doing something fun and new and taking pictures along the way... live music and jamming are awesome pastimes

I hit the gym, a lot! I do muay thai, yoga, rock climbing and love ice skating.

i've recently been hooked on COD:MW2 on PS3. You'll often find me up at odd hours getting pwnd by 13 year old kids.

And I'm a huge Batman fan. He can whoop Superman's boy scout butt any day of the week.

Sushi is my meal of choice. Anything Minty or Chocolately or both is my dessert.

Music, Movies, and Books

b movies and hollywood blockbusters comprise my dvd collection... music is varied, old school cash and iron maiden, to hardcore mudvayne and rise against, soundgarden to nirvana, breaking benjamin to avenged sevenfold, chill out with emm gryner, sarah mclaughlin and everything in between... books with current events and social observations get me the most, give me an editorial over fiction any day of the week

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think the most amazing thing I've done is turned my life around from 240lbs couch potato to a 180lbs couchsurfer.

I've seen the sun rise in the easternmost part of Canada. Looking forward to seeing the westernmost!

Update!! New most amazing thing: Rocking a Deer With My Good Friends Charles Darwin and Grand Aminus Prime (ask me to translate if you want to know how awful that really is)

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach me how to play a wicked solo or take me rock climbing. I'll show how to keep your computer in top top and shape and give you a helluva workout at the gym.

Countries I’ve Visited

Canada, Czech Republic, England, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, Scotland, Spain, Switzerland, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In
