Well, to begin, I'm currently studying at Concordia University where I've decided to specialize in Environmental Sciences, to which I plan on later receiving my Masters in some field of geology. I get nervous when asked specifically what I want to do with my life, because really, I don't have a definite answer. Which is why traveling interests me so, because maybe I'll find that moment or meet that person that'll inspire me towards something. I also sing- incessantly. No worries though, I can contain myself… My humor on the other hand, tends to shine through with no barriers.

Also, I'm officially a tree planting, having now planted in British Columbia and Alberta over the summer, which I plan on returning next year.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couch surfing because realistically it's the best way to travel in terms of affordability, cultural experiences, and making interesting and lasting memories- as sappy as that may sound. I like the idea of taking a leap into the unknown and meeting new people, seeing foreign places, and simply experiencing something outside the norm, and especially outside the typical, mundane "touristic" path. Staying with someone who knows the city well also will give me a better and more personal perspective of the city I decide to stay in. Plus there's the sheer fact that I get to connect with others, and learn their stories as they learn mine ! Cheesy I know, but awesome nonetheless.

Interests

Competitive sports such as soccer, rugby, and track & field… I also enjoy rock-climbing!; The generic arts such as drawing, painting, music (aka listening and singing), and writing; Taking many amateuristic photos (I may of possibly invented a word here, although urban dictionary says it's ok); Rebelling from being too hipster (does this ultimately make me a hipster?); Evidently traveling and meeting new people!

Teach, Learn, Share

"Carpe Diem," or is this now too overrated?... actually wait... I'm a hard core practicing procrastinator.

I can help around and definitely clean up after myself! I'm pretty outgoing and would like to think I'm also very easy to get along with. :)
