About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Traveling, exploring, learning, creating, enjoying!

ABOUT ME

I have recently graduated after 4 years of post secondary as a teacher. I love my profession and I believe that this is the way that I can make a difference in the world, and make a positive difference in the lives of the students I teach.

I love to travel because it is constant learning and living and new experiences that are right at my fingertips. The world is such a big, diverse place that it would be a waste not to try and see as much of it as I can!

I love music and dancing and reading and art and much more...

I really like to work with people, and meet new people and be social. I love hearing about other people's experiences and how they are similar or different from my own.

Success to me is being happy with who you are and the life you're living.

PHILOSOPHY

Live your life to please yourself and make yourself happy.

Don't be a second-rate version of someone else when you can be a first-rate version of yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently I've only surfed, but once I have a place of my own I'd like to host travelers at my place! Although if you're in Edmonton, I'd love to show you around or go for coffee!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's an amazing way to travel and really immerse yourself in the people and the culture around you. Every person I met or stayed with was so friendly and knowledgeable about their city. It really made my trip that much more special, and I hope once I have a place of my own I can be a great host to others.
