ABOUT ME

I feel like I'm always in transition, always looking for different things to do. Now I'm back living and working in Canada. I have lived in a few different countries including Ireland, the U.S., Australia and Japan. My most recent live abroad experience was in Osaka, Japan. I lived there for 5 years. Loved it! So different, unique and so much going on. After, I traveled my way home and that's when i learned about Couch Surfing. I have been a traveler ever since my family immigrated to Canada when I was 10 years old. I spent the first 10 years of my life in Ireland. That move implanted a travel bug that has never left me. I love meeting new people, learning about different cultures, tasting different types of cuisine and enjoying all the laughs that go along with traveling around this amazing planet. I like studying (some) languages, drinking good coffee, beer and educating myself about lots of different topics. i like photography, design and history. I've been to about 40 different countries and always looking to get to others. Next trip....

PHILOSOPHY

You get out of life what you put into it! don't take life too seriously, travel and listen.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

While traveling, I have learned about the Couch Surfing phenomenon and have only heard good reports, so i decided to give it a try. It seems like it's right up my alley, meeting cool like-minded people and getting an insight into cultures that you would not necessarily get while staying at a hostel.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first Couch Surf experience was in Albania. It was a brilliant experience. Adam the guy we surfed with was great, he made us feel right at home. It added so much to our experience. A beautiful hike in the mountains minus the scary scary vicious dogs and a great insight into life in Albania. Since then I have had good experiences in Guatemala, Mexico.....
