Overview
About Me
24 year old master's student currently living in Toronto, Canada. Passionate about travelling the world and experiencing new cultures, perspectives, foods, histories, and landscapes. I love being outside and am always in search of the next great hike, bike ride, running trail, or place to swim.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I joined Couchsurfing while travelling in Europe. I love that you get to meet locals who know the area and can teach you about the culture and give you excellent advice on things to do. I also like that Couchsurfing can take you to areas that you might not otherwise have visited, close by to more touristy centres.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: I like a wide variety of music, including classic rock, indie, jazz, and classical. I love finding new songs and artists.
Books: I read a bunch of different genres, and tend to switch between fiction and non-fiction. Some favourites include: The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver, Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell, Fall of Giants by Ken Follett, and Flash Boys by Michael Lewis
