About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live. Love. Moo.

ABOUT ME

I'm a 23 year old idealist with a double major in Psychology and French from the University of Victoria. I'll be finishing my degrees this December and then maybe Law School..? We'll see.

I love music, dancing, rock climbing, philosophizing, biking everywhere, hiking, camping, and music festivals. I love hugs, cuddle puddles, painting, and dress-up parties! I'm very open minded and love meeting all sorts of different, quirky and goofy people :)

PHILOSOPHY

"Live simply so that others may simply live"

Sometimes I wonder how different the world would be if people weren't so bad to each other.. sometimes I feel like our superior human cognitive powers are a curse rather than a blessing.
We hate because we fear. I believe we're all connected in a deep level and thus hurting others is just hurting ourselves. Love is all you need.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My boyfriend Yannick and I have been hosting couchsurfers since January 2010 and hope to do some of our own surfing soon.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have loved hosting everyone I've hosted! Everyone was unique in their own way and contributed in some way or another to my life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been part of two different cultures, Canadian and Paraguayan. I've seen the great differences between these two cultures and I've seen the similarities. Most of all I've seen the selflessness and humility of those who have nothing and are happy.. and those who have everything and yet are miserable.
