About Me

I recently discovered a love for traveling (I never thought this day was gonna come.) My parents would always invite me on vacation with them and I would rarely show interest in going or I would always get home sick (weird right!); and here I am now, after missing all these great opportunities, dying to travel the world. I am a very outgoing, down to earth person who loves to meet new people but I get cold feet when it comes to leaving my ''home'' & I still have so much to learn!
I am used to a routine and need to get out of my comfort zone and discover what other countries have to offer. I booked a plane ticket to Europe (kinda impulsively) in hope to meet new people with different cultures and educate myself with what we call the school of life!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am going to travel Europe for a month for the first time on my own and I thought I'd give this a chance to experience new things. I have a lot of friends that have used CS and they only had good things to say about it!

Interests

I love good food and good wine; when I used to travel with my family our main interest was to try all the great local spots not the touristy places. I also enjoy good coffee (and making good coffee as I was trained by the Canadian Barista Academy) ; whenever I am in a new town I look up where the locals eat. I have been working in the food industry since I was 13 and it's one of the main reason why I'm so excited to travel Europe.
I also enjoy good conversations about things I'm passionate about (especially with a glass of wine in my hand), learning about their culture, having debates. But don't get me wrong I also really enjoy going out with friends and having a good time! I love going on hikes as well as architecture. I have a passion for fashion as I studied Fashion Management in college.
