I'm originally from Vancouver Island but I came to the mainland for school and I've decided to stick around awhile longer before returning. I work(mostly) regular hours and have 2 friendly roommates.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was originally here as a guest, but now I'd like to give people a comfortable place to stay to make their travels possible :)
