CURRENT MISSION

I've usually got a painting project on the go and often have classes to teach part time at Universities here in Canada. Summers are my time for travelling!

ABOUT ME

Hello! I'm an easy-going fellow who likes to make things. I'm interested in nearly everything, but especially in art. I really like CS - it's the ideal way to visit a place. I don't travel a whole lot as I'm usually busy making things, but occasionally my pursuits take me places. I'm currently living in Nova Scotia Canada, but I've also lived in Montreal and Berlin. I have both Canadian and Irish passports, so moving to the EU might be in the cards for me sometime.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to be open-minded and present.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have some travelling of my own to do soon, but I hope to host some travellers as well in the near future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had a roommate who use to host couch surfers in our apartment and it was a great experience - Met a lot of interesting people and made some good friends. I couchsurfed in Edmonton Alberta and in Montreal some years ago and met great people that way.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw something amazing while sailing once, but I wouldn't be able to describe it - I'll have to make a painting of it someday.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to share my love of art and music, and I love for others to share theirs. I'm pretty sure I can teach anyone to play at least three chords on a ukulele. I'm damn good at drawing, and I can teach other's how to or draw you something.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can draw/paint you and your friends!
