I am an open and friendly lady from the heart of Northern Ontario, Canada - As a result I really enjoy spending time in and exploring the Outdoors.

For the past 5 years I've been studying Psychology at the University of Ottawa and working at Lush - a handmade cosmetics store.

In the Summers I head back up to live and work in the Northern woods planting trees.
I have travelled through a lot of Canada but am very excited to start exploring new parts of the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am embarking on a 3-month long backpacking adventure through Europe! I believe the best way to get the most out my experience is to share it with locals.

Interests

I LOVE Food - trying new food, making food, sharing food - i also feel the same way about music.
I really enjoy hiking and exploring the outdoors, reading, yoga, and I strive to constantly be learning.

Music, Movies, and Books

My heart resides with folk/acoustic music (Ray Lamontagne, Laura Marling, Glen Hansard, Bob Dylan etc.) but i have also really been into chillstep lately. I love listening to and learning about new music though! (even if it's not folk ;)

Authors I love are Kurt Vonnegut, Michael Ondaatje and Anne Michaels - insightful and poetic.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can make a pretty good loaf of bread, I give great hugs, I can plant thousands of trees in a day, and many other things but ultimately I really enjoy teaching learning and sharing with people in any capacity!
