ABOUT ME

I am shy at first, but I warm up fairly quickly :-)

No matter what, hot chocolate makes me feel cozy, and Monty Python makes me feel happy and silly.

I love reading, and watching movies, as well as fun nature walks and outdoor adventures! Beer is also good.

I am horribly unoriginal in my music taste, I listen to whatever people recommend to me, and rarely am able to match the name of a band to the name of a song. *sigh*

I am also very gullible, which is entertaining for some people, including myself... just thought I'd throw that out there...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Last summer I travelled around with my sister couchsurfing for 6 weeks and LOVED it... 100% planned on returning all the love by hosting fellow surfers while I studied in Victoria, and unfortunately the few requests that came while I was there were during times I was unable to host, although there were lots of lovely coffee meetings... OR I have been bombarded with messages (although they should have been in couchrequest form *hint hint*) during the summer when I'm not there... *sigh*. It's my goal to FINALLY host more than a coffee meeting when I'm back in Victoria in JANUARY 2012. It will happen.

I am going to make a fancy list of the lovely folks who have hosted me when I figure out how...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

5 random guys in ponchos and sombreros coming into the UVic main cafeteria with guitars and ukuleles, playing, singing and dancing to Feliz Navidad to wish us all a merry Christmas... gotta love student spirit.

"I love you" looks from a kitty

Driving through Tsawwassen and Victoria, seeing huge groups of kids out skating on homemade outdoor ice rinks (fields that have been flooded and frozen), playing hockey

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't think I can explain what I have to bring to the table, but I believe that this couchsurfing community creates a space or situation for this exchange of "knowledge", be that life skills, practical skills, or even just by enriching your knowledge of other cultures or ways of life.

I also cook a mean chicken parm.
