About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Roadtrip the american east coast.

ABOUT ME

I'm the kind of guy that's down to earth and mellow, I like to talk with strangers and never pretend to be somebody else (which is great for meeting new friends and horrible on first dates :P).

I love sports where I can explore like cycling, canoe, hiking and skiing, and when I manage to stop playing video games for long enough (consummate nerd) I get out and do them.

I love cooking, good food, craft beer, wine and cocktails. I got my bartending license and table service classes because I love mixology and oenology.

I'm a Zen Buddhist that loves cars and cult movies, an engineering student in a family of engineers, a level 7 wizard in Dungeons & Dragons and my favorite color is gray. That about cover's it.

PHILOSOPHY

Americanized Sōtō Zen Buddhist, or in simple terms live in the moment, appreciate the full range of human sensations and emotions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hang out and party with couchsurfers in Montreal all the time. I like hosting and have tons of space, I'm just far from everything.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

New to couchsurfing but many of my friends are veterans both as hosts and surfers that traveled across Europe and saw many a couch.

Interests

Music festivals, food, craft beer, nice views, night life, video games, books(think Douglas Adams and Terry Pratchett), and movies(not romantic comedies)
