About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Bike around Europe fixing bikes and telling jokes. Also help those whom I encounter, begin to imagine a world without money.

ABOUT ME

I am a stand up comedian and bike mechanic living out of Montreal. Just finished a run of show at the 2018 Edinburgh Fringe and currently biking around Europe with my girlfriend, while working as a comic current blog https://jokepedalingeurope.wordpress.com/

I biked from Vancouver Island to Montreal. If your curious here was my blog http://bikingacrosscanadatocurecomedy.wordpress.com/

PHILOSOPHY

Those who believe they can, and those who believe they can't, are both right.

Eat less meat (or none) get on a bike and be kind to yourself and others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I lived in Kamloops for a few years and it was a good hub for travellers crossing through BC. I hosted numerous travellers and loved the experience. I now live in Montreal and am available to host.

I have hosted loads of people and love it, Its been a great experience and I am staggered at the number of high quality people I have met through this organization. I keep meeting similar minded cool people and look forward to this trend continuing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

With the help of another couch surfer, I dropped a life I didn't really want to pursue a dream I truly desire.

Grew approximately 30% of my own food while living on Vancouver island.

In 2014 biked 6000kms.

Telling dick jokes in front of my mom.

Hosted a potluck and jam monthly where 50 people attend and I got to enjoy some of the best musicians I have ever met.

Also kick ass ninja running wall kick after way too many drinks. really should try some parkour.

Teach, Learn, Share

I truly hope we can make a world where we can follow our passions not only furthering our own quality of existence but also of those around us.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Ill fix your bike, most likely make you laugh. And spend time cleaning up the hair a shed. I am a mediocre cook but great at doing dishes.
