Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To see as much of the world as I can, and have fun doing it
ABOUT ME
Hate these parts ! Im pretty easy going, free spirited. I have a good sense of humour. I love to travel and see new places and always try to step out of my comfort zone, as I believe this is when the best things in life happen. I like to visit new places but have a fondness for working visas, to get a real taste for living somewhere new for as long as they'll let me.
PHILOSOPHY
Explore and do and see the things in life you want and just have fun doing it. Also if anyone does nice things for you pay it forward
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm currently travelling across Canada so looking for places to surf mostly. But once I get back home I'd love to offer my place to fellow travellers. On the one condition you have to tell me one amazing story from somewhere you have been
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Had the good fortune to meet some great people and hope to meet many more on my travels.
Interests
I love to travel,and exploring new places. There is nothing better than ending up in a new city and just walking around to get the feel of it. I like to cook, I like to draw and often make scrapbooks to remember my travels. I'm a big video game fan and that's one comfort I always miss when I'm away. I'm also a recently certified scuba diver looking forward to advancing my skill wherever I get the chance.

Music, Movies, and Books
Too much music to list any movies that make you laugh or think. As for books I'm a huge fan of Lee Childs Jack Reacher series. As well as anything written by Richard Dawkins.

Teach, Learn, Share
The only advice I can offer is if you're heading to Australia be warned its expensive to live. If you're backpacking there is always plenty of work, stick to the west coast especially. One thing to always remember when looking for work there is the further afield you go (to roadhouses or mining towns) the more you can make and the better times you'll have.
If you're heading to Canada make the most of the natural beauty, winters can be brutal (I'm sure that's hardly a shock) but there's always plenty to see and do. Same goes for the summers. Make sure to head out to Alberta in particular, I spent a couple of weeks living amongst the Rocky Mountains and words cannot describe how beautiful it is out there.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I'm very easy going and always try to be positive. I have a good sense of humour and plenty of stories, mostly miss-haps of my various travels. I have advice also to offer on any of the countries I've been to if that may help you in any way on your future adventures.
