Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Seeing as much of the world and its people as I can
ABOUT ME
I'm an easy going person that loves to travel and experience new things. Love to try new foods, wines, and beers from different countries.
I am going into my last year of dental school.
Been throughout Canada and Eastern USA, Nicaragua, Ireland, UK, Germany, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Hungary, Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro, Switzerland, Austria, Czech Republic, Italy, Spain and Poland as well as the Caribbean, but never to Asia, Australia or South America, all places I hope to one day experience.
PHILOSOPHY
Want to see and experience as much of the world and different cultures as possible. Not able to travel now with school but want to travel by hosting people from around the world. The world is too big and fascinating to live my whole life in North America.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Couchsurfed in Europe and Nicaragua and have hosted a few people on my couch in Toronto. I am really busy with dental school but will still make an effort to try and host people. I live with my girlfriend who is also a couchsurfer.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I was lucky enough to be hosted one summer in London, Munich, and Erlangen for the "Berg". The next summer I was hosted in Bruges, Berlin, Salzburg, Prague, Krakow, Ljubljana, and Barcelona. Last summer I was also hosted in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua. I hosted my host in Berlin and a few other from around the world. Have had a great time and hope to meet more people from around the world.
Interests
Love to play golf, cycle, baseball, basketball, hockey, football(American and European), volleyball, squash, tennis, weighlift, fish, ski, snowboard, scuba dive and travel.
Love to cook and taste new foods.
Helping people, one of the reason I like couchsurfing so much. Also the reason I went into healthcare, ultimately deciding to attend dental school.
