I’m a Canadian girl who recently finished an undergraduate degree in Biology. I love to travel and meeting new people is one of my favourite parts of travelling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've used couchsurfing in Europe and had amazing experiences with it. Using this platform gives me a much more personal connection to the places I visit, as opposed to when I stay in a hostel or Air bnb. Hoping to continue making connections around the world! Whether the connection comes in the form of a place to stay, a friend to hang out with, or simply someone to ask questions to- I'm searching for them all!

Music, Movies, and Books

Folk and alternative music. I grew up in a very musical household, with a grandmother and aunt who were/are piano teachers, a dad and uncle who are both professional musicians, and music lessons through my childhood. Music is a huge part of my life and I would love to connect with other surfers through music!

Crime books (John Grisham!!), historical fiction, currently attempting the Game of Thrones series. Favourite childhood series- Harry Potter. Favourite novel- The Bell Jar.

I'm probably one of the only people who knows nothing of the Marvel and/or DC universes. My favourite movies are probably The Sound of Music (I visited some of the spots this movie was filmed in Austria) and Love Actually (who doesn't love a Christmas movie set in the English countryside).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

As a former summer camp staff member, I got to lead a four week canoe trip through the back lakes of northwestern Ontario, Canada. Along with another tripper, I led 6 teenaged girls through long paddling stretches and portages, navigating with a trusty map and compass.

Teach, Learn, Share

Canadian geography (no one knows where my city is)
Learn about local food and music! I love to cook and try new cuisines, and as a vegetarian I'm always searching for recipes I can adjust to fit my preferences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A fun, nice, passionate traveller. Easy going and easy to get along with. Lots of experiences to share and would love to hear new stories from my hosts. Love to cook, very clean, eager to make lifelong friends!
