Overview
About Me
University student.
Always game for a coffee or beer!
Just doing some traveling after having finished university, and I love meeting new people and sharing a few laughs at the expense of our cultural differences (or similarities).
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing is a great way to meet locals and travel on a budget. It's so nice spending a day exploring a city with a local and seeing all the neat dive-bars and swanky cafes, as opposed to simply seeing the main tourist attractions. Also, it's just great meeting new folks and getting to know someone I otherwise would never meet.
I'll be trying to work my way around the world throughout 2018/2019, and so will be trying to Couchsurf as much as possible.
Interests
I enjoy most outdoor activities like hiking, kayaking, cycling, and running. I play hockey at a recreational level (after all, I am Canadian), and play Intermediate level soccer. I am always game for fresh air, and am not one to turn down an adventure. I play a little guitar just as a way to unwind and relieve stress.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've worked at a theatre for the past few years, meaning I've met all kinds of cool people coming through our theatre; from an astronaut to stand-up comedians, from musicians to broadway musical stars, every shift is different and a great way to meet new people!
