ABOUT ME

Well, I can't complain, but sometimes I still do.... I write and travel for a living. I like words. I'm intrigued by the many elements and complexities of life and culture. I have my cynical tendencies (more-so nowadays), but I remain a prisoner of hope. I have been taking some genuine timeout from society as of late and traveling across North America. Needless to say, I've been up to some pretty amazing things. I was recently living and reporting on the student protests in Montreal and then working at a Korean BBQ in Chicago. Then I lived in the mountains of the Continental Divide, until I made my way over to California to surf in the Pacific Ocean. I've been couch surfing, sleeping in my truck and staying in hostels pretty much the entire trip; and I must say, I wouldn't have it any other way. I feel as though I have grown as a human being and a writer. I'm particularly intuitive and friendly. I'm also not annoying. I'm honest and well-cultured. I try to be cool whenever possible, but sometimes I feel like I have the soul of a clown, which forces me to burst at the most crucial moments. I really am no bother.

----------------------------------------

Please, if you wish to stay with me, bring with you a rational ideology and a sense of humor. And, above all else, bring courtesy. Because even if we don't like one another, we must remain civil for this thing to live on. Savvy? All right, now let's boogie!

PHILOSOPHY

Do the right thing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The surf's up.

Intereses

I'm interested in typical recreations: music, literature, beer drinking (it is a recreation for me), visual art, sports, traveling. I enjoy grand adventures and learning. I'm interested in interesting people, places and things. I suppose you could say I'm into nouns. I'm really good at: One-liners. Editing. Fixing the toilet and/or problems. Dressing myself. Making the best out of a bad situation. Guitar. Chess. Jokes. Learning. Athletics. Research. Back flips. Deducing. Aphorisms. Driving. Water-balloon fights. Holding my breath. Surfing. Cooking. Loving. Thinking before I speak. Leading the way, and getting lost. Probably some other stuff too.
