CURRENT MISSION

Figure out what to do with my life (!!!)

ABOUT ME

I'm a very easy-going, laid-back person and I get along with almost everyone. I'm always willing to try new things and go on an adventure, but I also like to laze around at home or at the beach. I'm in the limbo between graduating from university and the real world, so I'm a pretty free bird right now.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've surfed a few times and hosted a few times, and all have been great experiences.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Both hosting and surfing, I've met some awesome people and had some awesome adventures.

Interessen

Growing up on the west coast of Canada, I LOVE the outdoors. I love hiking, sailing, swimming, surfing, camping, playing soccer, and just generally being outside, rain or shine.

I also love reading, cooking, baking, long discussions about this and that, and of course travel, learning about different cultures and their histories. I play piano and am currently trying to teach myself the ukulele, although I don't practice as much as I should.

Talk to me about books, movies, music, the environment, traveling, philosophy, food, your hopes and dreams.

Isabel Allende, The Lacuna, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, anything by Wally Lamb or James Frey, Life of Pi, On The Road, Breakfast of Champions, Harry Potter

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I feel like the best is next to come, but growing up on Vancouver Island has been pretty amazing. It's an absolutely stunning place.

Sailed from Nanaimo to San Francisco...it was a wild ride, to say the least.

I also did a semester's exchange in England. If you're a student and considering an exchange...just do it.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

If you're passionate about it, I'll probably want to hear about it.

I study geography in school, so I like the big picture, and can tell you about it.

Sharing a beer or a cup of tea and a conversation is one of my favourite things.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Good conversation! I love sharing and learning about other cultures, countries, histories, geographies, etc etc.

I can whip up a big batch of vegetarian chili, bake some double chocolate banana bread, or whatever else your heart desires.
