ABOUT ME

Hello CS friends!. My life of travel began in 2008 when I did my first solo trip to Brazil. After 4 weeks of exploring, I want to see more of the world, try delicious culinary delights and live life the way that makes me happy. As of now, I am back home just north of Toronto in Canada, spending time with family and friends is important to me. While I'm at home I teach and train in Martial arts, volunteer, Rock climb and practice Archery.
