About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Hello fellow couch surfers! I am embarking on a 9 month trip through Canada, the US, India and Nepal. I'm stoked to get back to the life of a nomad after a long stint of doing the sometimes too stable 9 to 5 schtick!

ABOUT ME

Over the past decade I've been dedicated to my career. Recently I decided that travel is a major priority so I've given up the career in order to pursue that. I've traveled through Canada the States, Central America, India, Nepal and Japan and am now returning to Nepal and India after some time in the States. I am passionate about yoga so plan on furthering my studies in yoga while in India. My other passions include dance (and music that makes me do it), the great outdoors and plant medicines.

PHILOSOPHY

Learn, learn, learn. Grow, grow, grow. Shine your Light brightly; do not hide your unique flavour of magic!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new to the CS Project so this is a tough one to answer!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've just recently signed up with Couchsurfing.com but this does not mean I've not had many, many guests stay on my couch! I love offering a place to stay and love showing off whatever city I'm living in! I will not be able to do this for the next year or so because it will be me that will be doing the surfing!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have spent been studying yoga for over 12 years; it is a passion of mine and I'd be happy to share any knowledge I have of it with anyone. I've been working with plant medicines for almost 3 years and would be happy to speak to others of my experiences. I've traveled through 15 countries and would be happy to tell you my tales. I'm sure you have an abundance of knowledge I'd hugely benefit from!

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy meeting and learning from people who are living their dreams and who are fully pursuing their passions because this is what inspires me to do the same.
