CURRENT MISSION

Masters of Architecture

ABOUT ME

I study architecture in a small coastal city in Canada called Halifax. I have a knack for designing and making things, and do this often. Other times you'll find me cooking, deep in thought or outside.

Last year I lived in a house in the Canadian woods by a lake. I built a greenhouse in the summer and worked for an architecture firm in the winter.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Over the years I have hosted surfers both in Halifax and in rural Ontario. My father Ian Kilborn is still hosting people at our house in the woods on Buck Lake. You can look for him on couch surfing.

On a trip to Spain I surfed for the first time in Granada with my boyfriend to see the Alhambra and it was excellent and made our trip colourful, comfortable and easy.

Interests

Recently: sewing useful things, making maple syrup, thinking about farming, bicycle rides to the beach, and drawing with fine point pens.
