I am Emma! I am a born and raised Albertan that has seen this province almost corner to corner. Hiking in the Rockies, camping in the Badlands and driving fast through the Prairies are all part of the experience!

I believe in always striving to be a better and happier person, learning all you can from your elders, and that getting to know your family is important.

Music, Movies, and Books

Interstellar was the last great movie I watched. Makes you think what things will be like. Are we managing this earth/ourselves properly?

Lena Dunham the writer of "Not That Kind of Girl" and of the show "Girls" is a cool lady.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once baked a beautiful loaf of bread. Honey, poppy seed, lemon zest braided all together. It was awesome.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach - vermiculture (worm composting) and environmental awareness or how to make a bed properly.

I am wanting to learn - about the life lessons you have learned.

I want to share - good times, good laughs and good food.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My determined work ethic and willingness to get into something new.

I love gardening, building things and being part of a team!
