hello!

I am a thirty-something who has uprooted a few times within my home country of canada:
grew up in the west - calgary, alberta
moved to the east coast - halifax, nova scotia
now living in the north - whitehorse, yukon territory

I've spent time travelling with friends and family, though some of my favourite trips have been ones I've taken on my own - looking to meet and share experiences with companions along the way

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin
