I'm a quiet and reserved person but I am an open minded artist and I love to discover different cultures, Museums and nature from everywhere. I am currently studying Asian Culture in Montreal where I am learning Japanese, and I'm an illustrator in my free time.

I love doing things the weird and unusual way, go to places not a lot of people know about. I just love going on adventures and doing random things!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'll be frank; I'm a broke student and I'm looking to take the money I would have normally spent on a hotel/hostel/Airbnb and put it into visits to local Museums, food, activities. However, I love Airbnb and Couchsurfing for the fact that you don't have to stay in a touristy area and you can meet actual locals.

I would also love to get to know people and share interests with others. If anyone feels like bringing me to their local National Park, go dumpster diving or have an abandoned building they love to visit, I'd be thrilled to join you!
