About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finish my education, be fully present where I am (wherever that is - as a coop student at UW, there's a fair bit of moving around), and see the beauty of the many landscapes, villages, towns, cities, and homes of this world.

ABOUT ME

I'm an open-minded guy who loves to learn. So I look forward to learning from you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope to keep travelling, and when I'm able offer those who are travelling a place to stay. I'm in a coop program at the University of Waterloo right now though (and have been for a few years), so find myself moving every 4 months, and with different people/roommates, so unfortunately don't feel comfortable hosting at this point.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just travelling so far. So far it's been in Europe while I was studying there as well as a small bike trip through New York state. As mentioned above, as a student who moves around about every 4 months between school and co-op work placements, hosting so far has bee pretty difficult for now :(

Interests

I enjoy travelling, meeting new people, and having stimulating conversations. I enjoy drawing, reading, biking, and playing hockey and soccer. I find great pleasure in nature, cities, and people in general.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Nothing. Just kidding. Everyday breath is really quite amazing, and I'm thankful for every living moment!

Canoeing in northern Ontario is one of my favourite things, so that's happened a number of times. Biking too. Last summer my younger brother and I biked through part of Southern Ontario, through New York State, and into Pennsylvania to visit family there. It was wonderful.

Teach, Learn, Share

A lesson I learned from my father: Always focus on the positives and bring those out, whether it be in those around us or in one's environment.
