CURRENT MISSION

To live the dream, and get some serious skiing in. I want to meet inspiring and adventurous people, and switch up my natural environment.

ABOUT ME

I Just graduated from Teachers College in North Bay Ontario and am heading back to the west coast for the summer. After graduating from University in Guelph, I did a ski season at Big White in Kelowna, and lived in Vancouver for a year. I came back to Ontario to further my education, and I am excited to get back out west with new skills and knowledge! I like to do fun things and attempt to fly by throwing myself off cliffs. I love doing dishes while discussing sweeping topics in neuroscience and digressing towards more complex issues like the cosmos and free will. haha. Seriously though i am chill, easy going, and like to meet new people. Skiing has been a serious passion of mine for a long time. I am also passionate about teaching, education, and working with youth in general. Might go to China next year!

PHILOSOPHY

I think its important for everyone to take some time to adventure and step outside of their comfort zone. I have had a great few years since graduating university, and I am looking forward to giving back to society by teaching and being a positive role model.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am always down to help out, especially knowing there are generous and good people out there willing to open up their homes.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couch surfed across Canada 2 years back and it was an amazing experience! I had lots of friends surf at my place in Vancouver last year!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had a great summer working for Easter Seals Camp Squamish, a privately funded camp for kids and young adults with physical and mental disabilities. Took 5 young adults on a 7 day canoe camping trip near Campbell river. Grew up skiing at Mont Tremblant in Quebec, and tripped out to Golden BC in first year uni for a week. Spent a season skiing at Big White ski resort in Kelowna. Just finished teachers college!

Teach, Learn, Share

We are all unique. Even monozygotic twins have different patterns of convolutions in the adult brain. We are a social animal and immediately/automatically are affected by those around us. A simple hug can brighten one's day. Its amazing to think that everything one experiences and perceives lies in the mind (essentially unaccessible to anyone but yourself), however this simple gesture can completely alter one's inner consciousness. One mind affecting another; emotions flowing through space and biology.
