About Me

Ask me anything! My favourite thing to do is learn about people, what they are passionate about and especially about their travels. I am new to Couchsurfing as I have just started travelling solo but am excited to connect with folks from around the world!

My daily mantra is “Always stay humble and kind”

Back home I used to work in for a travel centre so I am always able to offer advice about travelling to Manitoba( as well as Canada) so please, do not hesitate to reach out about ANYTHING.

In my downtime I volunteer with a variety of organizations from neighbourhood renewal efforts to tech events(I co-founded a volunteer based events non-profit) to festivals/local concerts/theatre, etc. I love small timey musicians(please send me your music if you’re an artist!). My openness is unmatched but I live life with a Buddhist type of spirituality and a Kantian philosophy, although love learning about how lived experiences and trauma have shaped the world(I’m a social psych major). I also hate working out so to get active I like to play sports, almost all types and kinds; volleyball, hockey, slo pitch baseball, sponge hockey, ultimate frisbee and soccer are those that I have played this past year. I also love yoga and going for runs. Museums and art galleries have a lovely little spot in my heart. Scenic hikes or laying in the beach are the best ways to watch a sunrise or sunset. Most importantly, I love a good drink and some food with great conversation.

P.S. On our license plates it says, “Friendly Manitoba” and I take pride in personifying that fact. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m new to the solo travelling world and would love to meet new people. I want to learn about your culture and your experiences!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Backpacked Europe for 3.5 months

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to teach you about travel and how to save money doing so (also would love to teach you about Canada or my home province of Manitoba). I work in travel so I can tell you the pros and cons of booking on different platforms! I want to know about the local sports(specifically the fans and interacting with them) or random history. Would love to learn more about different culture as well as about art and art history. I love learning about how tech and opportunity can benefit society, specifically in under developed or overlooked communities. Would love to share an experience with you.
