Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Backpacking South America. Looking for people that inspire me and for opportunities to give back to the communities that I stay with.
And of course some quality nature time in beautiful Patagonia!
ABOUT ME
I'm from Vancouver, Canada, and proud to be really friendly, active, and open minded. I'm into hiking, biking, skiing, sailing and really anything outdoors, be it sunny or snowing. I'm clean, friendly, and I'll give you a good conversation. I always pay back hosts with some good old home cooking!
PHILOSOPHY
The best measure of character isn't the tailor of your clothes, but how you treat the wait staff at a breakfast restaurant when you're having a bad day.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Right now, I participate by sharing my culture and providing hosts with interesting conversations. I plan to host couchsurfers in Vancouver as soon as possible because I love meeting new people and supporting the surfing mentality!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have always felt very welcomed into the homes of my hosts when couchsurfing, and have tried to make surfers feel at home as well! I believe that feeling a sense of home and community to travellers is the best thing a host can offer.
Interests
Outdoors adventures are always fun! In Vancouver you can find me in nature all year; hiking in the summer, or skiing in the winter.
I love to cook up a storm and share with friends. A good communal meal brings people of all types together.
I also love meeting new people of different cultures, and I'm looking for opportunities to practice my Spanish!
