ABOUT ME

*COUCH ONLY AVAILABLE AFTER SEPTEMBER 1ST 2012*

Hello friends and fellow Couch surfers!
I am Alyssa Holmes, a 20 year old young woman from Ontario, Canada! I have grown up living just outside of Toronto, with my amazing family. I am home now after an incredible 9 month journey through Europe, visiting Spain, England, Turkey, Greece, France, Italy, Switzerland, & Israel.

I now live in my own apartment in the beautiful and vibrant city of Toronto!

I LOVE to meet new friends, drink and laugh, go to concerts, and watch ridiculous movies.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life day by day. Every day is a gift, I never waste time worrying over something small! Each passing minute, is a chance to turn everything around.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had nothing but WONDERFUL couch surf experiences.
Every host I ever had was too good to be true.
I made life long friendships, and memories to last even longer.

It is time to pay it forward, and help some other travelers on their way!
