CURRENT MISSION

To say yes to every opportunity (okay, you can stop snickering now).

ABOUT ME

I am a fine artist born and raised in Toronto, Canada. I love running, lifting heavy things, eating anything and everything; and, of course travel.

PHILOSOPHY

Keep learning. Take chances. Stay flexible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment I am traveling; but, once I'm settled again I plan on making my couch available to my fellow surfers! With that said, I do like to cook, so I can always contribute a meal at the very least.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am a newbie! Heard about couch surfing aeons ago, but hadn't tried it until recently. Better late than never, huh?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In Fort Cochin, I saw a goat on a motorbike. No. Really. A goat on a motorbike.

Teach, Learn, Share

TEACH: Colour Theory; Art History; bacon cookery; weight lifting; Pose running...Canadiana.

LEARN: Card games of any kind- I can't seem to retain them! We might have to go over 'Go Fish' that's how rusty I am.

SHARE: I'll over-share if it suits you! Otherwise, I can censor myself. I am also adept at sharing meals, drinks, relationship advise (this definitely improves after the aforementioned drinks)
