ABOUT ME

I have seven cats and live by the old train tracks in bronx...
Haha! I'm a Canadian looking for something out of the ordinary so I travel! Travelling is great way to connect with people, discover, explore, learn and grow.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is best understood backwards.

Not all those who wander are lost

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm a newbie at this, though the more people I meet the more people talk about couch surfing and what an amazing experience it is. I've hosted people in whistler, B.C through a different websource. The people who showed up at my door were probably the most interesting folks. It was def a highlighted experience.

Interests

Water.Beaches. Waterfalls. Rain. Thunderstorms I love it all! That's including all the water sports; swimming, waterpolo, and I would love to learn to kitesurf and sail.

I am always lugging around a library in my suitcase, always ready to trade my book:) There's nothing like leaving a good read in someone else's hand.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- the Winter Olympics was pretty sweet event
- sharing a tiny tent in Venice during the summer of 2011 and then continuing onto the couch surfing adventure of the year throughout Italy... Too many crazy, inspiring things occurred only to end up in Helisinki, Finnland for an interview and then out into the middle east to the UAE. Crazy life. Always expect the unexpected !
