CURRENT MISSION

Experiencing as much as possible from this world and have a great time doing it.

ABOUT ME

Starting my career as an engineer. I love adventures and exploring ideas and fun things. Trying to learn French currently. While in school I did not get a chance to travel very much, usually due to money. I did spend my holidays going camping with friends or going to cottages. My background is German (mother's side) and Italian (father's side) although both parents were born in Toronto.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to share some experiences with people that live in the countries I am visiting, make friends, explore new places. I have not traveled outside of the country much and feel that I need to catch up a little on experiences. Although I can appreciate visiting typical tourist sites, I would rather live the culture rather than just seeing it.

On my Sept 2015 trip to France I would like to travel solo for the first time and would like to make some friends to spend my week with.
