Présentation
À propos de moi
I'm a graduated engineer, 24 years old, from Waterloo, ON, Canada, moving to Brisbane to open up the Australian subsidiary of a startup company I co-founded named Suncayr. We're conducting some research at QUT and are in the finals of an incubator program that will have me involved until around February (maybe longer).
I've lived with roommates, male and female, for the last 6 years - spanning 4 different cities every 4 months due to my undergraduate co-op program, so I'm able to adapt to any lifestyle that you've got with the roommates now! Generally I'll keep my space clean.
Most of my interests aren't good to travel with, but I'm into board games, ultimate frisbee, music, and just about anything outdoors!
Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
I'll be coming to Brisbane with no connections to the local environment, and with no family or friends in the area! I thought I'd give couchsurfing a shot to meet some new locals while I get my feet on the ground!
