CURRENT MISSION

To eat as much as I travel.

ABOUT ME

99% of the time I'd rather be anywhere else other than my hometown. Tried the whole job market thing after finishing my Bachelor degree in International Relations and Geography, but it didn't pan out so now I'm in Finland to complete a Master degree in Peace and Conflict. I'm proud to have the experiences of previously living in Ireland, China, and Thailand.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal motto is: You're always where you need to be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sometimes hostelling doesn't cut it. But also, I think back to the few times I've dabbled in CSing and I think: damn, that was fun and random.

Interests

Eating and exploring, as previously mentioned. But when I'm not doing either, I enjoy watching films, reading, writing, listening to music/fooling around on a guitar, and practicing photography.

When I'm back in Vancouver I do a lot of sports, in particular volleyball, soccer/football, rock/sport climbing, snowboarding, hiking, and cycling.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: Murakami, Kundera, Orwell. I don't read enough, but I know I enjoy these authors' stuff.

Music: Too many to list.

Movies: Guy Ritchie's old films, Wes Anderson films, Tarantino, and way too many other titles I can't remember
