About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Pursuing opportunities to learn and grow, to take in all the nourishment this wild and beautiful life offers, and to share with others.

ABOUT ME

I grew up on the edge of the Canadian Rockies in a small town. I love to be outdoors - in forests, mountains, and oceans. I'm now living in Nanaimo BC and I work as a counsellor.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm open to hosting people here in Nanaimo likely on weekends only as my work week is too busy. I also appreciate very much those who host me on my adventures!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm grateful for the kindness I have been shown through the couchsurfing experiences I've had. There are so many amazing people out there I can't wait to meet and learn from!
