About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet as many new people from different cultures as possible

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised near Vancouver. I've lived two years in France working as an au pair.

PHILOSOPHY

"Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if they were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care, kindness, and understanding you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again." - Og Mandino

"For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone." - Audrey Hepburn

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have had three amazing couch surfing experiences, I hope to have many, many more. Once I am back home and living on my own I will be so happy to open my home up to travelers!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couch surfed once in Lyon, France, and it was the best experience ever. I am so thankful for that experience. I hope to have more like it!
Also the summer of 2011 I couch surfed with a friend for a night in Montreal, Quebec, and that was a wicked good night of partying!
At the beginning of my second France trip, I couchsurfed for 3 nights in Paris, and had the most amazing time. It was a dream come true being in Paris.
