About Me

Im from a small city in eastern Canada and currently traveling Asia for a while. I just finished 3 years of teaching English in China so i dont actually have a home now. Im traveling solo so im more interested in meeting awesome people and having a great experience. Love music such as the chili peppers, jimi hendrix, Dave Matthews Band, Metallica and Black Sabbath.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Although I do love the hostel lifestyle, I think if you are traveling to a certain country than you should take time to really experience the culture and experience how the locals live. Getting different insight and a different experience than most other tourists is very important!

Interests

music and obviously traveling, I love studying Mandarin too and hope to find time to start studying French again. love watching basketball and hockey. I also have strange obsession with north korea
