CURRENT MISSION

My goal in life is to become an epic Professor. My current plan is to road trip down to San Fran and check out the US while I live in Vancouver! I actually made this profile a few years back for a different San Francisco trip which fell through, and now I am trying to get to the city of my dreams again!

ABOUT ME

Born in Toronto, been living in Vancouver for the last few years. I'm a big fan of learning, knowledge sharing, and having great crazy experiences! In my spare time, I volunteer with policy and harm reduction organizations.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is to never let my fear decide my fate, and to live life passionately.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing to meet new people, as well as find places to stay on my journeys, and hopefully help facilitate fellow travellers.

Interests

I love academia in a feverishly nerdy way. I also enjoy reading literature, writing my blog when I have time, and spending time with people and learning their stories. I also like writing poetry, gardening and drinking beer! Witty banter is also highly encouraged.
