I am totally a free spirit; very open minded and super chill!

Enneagram: Type 2 (Helper)
Myers Briggs: ENFP

I am really passionate about:
- Staying active and enjoying the outdoors. I LOVE snowboarding, hiking, yoga, camping, scuba diving. I've dabbled in rock climbing and surfing as well! I'm very interested in getting more into backcountry camping, hiking, and snowboarding.
- I love unique events that bring people together. Of all the events I've attended, my two favourites are Burning Man and Tomorrowland
- Mindfulness. I've been on the mindfulness journey for a few years now and I'm loving it :)
- Music. Although I enjoy all genres, I am very passionate about electronic music. Specifically, I'm a huge fan of Deep House and Techno. Always ending underground events in Toronto and wherever I can find them around the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The best part about travel is the people. Couchsurfing allows me to meet locals in the country and hopefully get to know them deeply! I've always been intrigued by Couchsurfing. I signed up in 2010, but I never really used it.

In 2017, I've traveled for about 6 months around South America and Asia and some of the coolest people I met were Couchsurfers! That was enough to get me back on here :)

Interests

Travel: Some of my favourite travel experiences. Hiking the Annapurna Circuit in Nepal. Snowboarding in Tignes/Val D'Isere. Heliboarding in Revelstoke, Canada. Scuba Diving in the Maldives. Remote island hopping expedition in Palawan with Tao Philippines. Climbing Huayna Potosi in Bolivia. Bungee Jumping in Costa Rica. Attending the UEFA Champions League Final in Madrid.

Snowboarding: Self taught snowboarder. Learned when I was 20. My favourite activity! Snowboard about 15 days a year. Been to many resorts in Quebec and Vermont as well as Whistler, Revelstoke, Tignes/Val D'Isere, Zermatt, St. Anton. Really enjoy off-piste and sidecountry snowboarding.
