ABOUT ME

Hi! I'm Steph! I'm perky, friendly and curious. I love going on adventures and having great snacks.

PHILOSOPHY

The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now, I don't have a couch to share, but I hope to one day host many backpacking teenagers/young adults...hopefully they will keep me young. :P

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have spent a couple lovely weekends crashing on people's couches.

Interests

I'm a huge jock. Every few years, I find a new sport and it becomes my obsession. Right now, my life revolves around Roller Derby (yes, its back! with a vengeance!). I've also played rugby at a competitive level for over 8 years, played ice hockey since I could walk and have tried every other sport at least once.

I love anything 1920s- jazz, flapper, smoky dark cafes.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm on a French cinema kick. I love the the gritty, kinky, extreme films that came out of the sexual revolution.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This may not sound particularly thrilling but last winter, I got up at 5:30 am four Saturdays in a row for 7 am hockey practices. It was freezing out and it was still dark but stepping onto that ice before most of the world is awake made me feel extremely Canadian!

Teach, Learn, Share

Things that I can share...um..I can definitely teach anyone how to skate or throw a rugby ball.

I love talking about differences in culture and have been around a multitude of different ones.

Countries I’ve Visited

Cuba, Dominican Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In
