I am a 23 year-old recent graduate from Ryerson University travelling the world on a budget! I am a visual artist, writer, and musician, and I am hoping to find inspiration abroad through new experiences and collaboration.

I grew up in Ottawa but have spent the last five years in Toronto studying and working. Before quitting my job to travel indefinitely, I worked at a Canadian music magazine during the day and at a craft brewery called Bar Hop by night. That said, I love all varieties of music, (almost) all varieties of beer, and any combination of the two!

I have an extreme passion for baked goods; both in their consumption and creation. I am an avid runner and am always looking for new locations to practice yoga. I love design, both digital and otherwise, and am building up my portfolio with the hopes of landing a tattoo apprentiship once settle down in Australia in March.

Zainteresowania

As a traveller, I am obviously extremely interested in people and culture, and have found a soft spot for history and current affairs in the Middle East. I read pretty much anything I can get my hands on about this part of the world, and would be happy with any recommendations.

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem(-am)

I once ate an entire bag of gold fish in 10 minutes.

I've also built my own website recently, www.bookofaria.com, which I use to showcase some of my art and writing.

Ucz innych, ucz się sam, udostępniaj

I love to sit and silently work with others; drawing, writing, anything creative. I love singing with anyone willing to jam. Though I'm not certified in teaching yoga, I am happy to have the impromptu session with anyone who is up for it. As previously mentioned, I LOVE to bake, and while baking is my forté, I can also cook a mean _____ (aka I am not afraid to experiment in the kitchen). Let's grab a bottle of good red wine and go, I say.

Czym mogę się podzielić z gospodarzami

I am happy to bake you anything your heart desires and/or go for a run or hike together (contradictory, I know). I love knowledge more than anything and would be grateful to have a conversation with you about anything from the eating habits of your next door neighbour's cat to the inner workings of the universe.
