Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Travel with my children as much as possible-show them the world and learn about cultures and tolerance.
ABOUT ME
I have a wonderful partner and two active children born in 1999 and 2001. I was born in Sri Lanka and raised in New Zealand and Canada. I obviously love to travel. I own and operate a language school in the Gaspé Peninsula in Quebec, Canada. I also love sports, movies, good books and writing occasionally. My ultimate joy comes from the time I spend with Daniel, Keshani and Antoine.
PHILOSOPHY
All countries and cultures have aspects that can enrich our lives.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I would like to offer my couch and extra bed. I love to have people share their culture and language with me. If I can share a small part of the Gaspé Peninsula I will.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I am new to this. I traveled and hitchhiked and slept on couches and floors when people offered me that. I have had many young university students stay with me for the last 5 years.I would like to continue this.
