I'm a skier and an all around adventure lover. In the summer season you can find me on the trails - either by foot or by bike, I love exploring the peaks, valleys, meadows, falls and tarns that the Koots have to offer! Nelson, BC is home, and I love it more every day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Aspiring world traveler with the hopes to learn as much as possible along the way. The best way to do that is through you! I love sharing where I live with passers by, and I'd imagine I'm not the only one. Love finding hidden gems off the beaten path and getting to know new people!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Not an amazing thing I've done, rather experienced: hiked to Jumbo cabin, with ski gear in tow (in June). That valley is like nothing else. The view is breathtaking and the feeling you get looking out into the vast distance and beauty in nothingness is pure bliss! Keep jumbo wild forever 🌲🌲🌲

Teach, Learn, Share

Love to learn anything from anyone! I can share with you some pretty bang up Pad Thai (depending on the day) and maybe a joke or two. Can teach you where to go to have a good time in Nelson Town.. Maybe a thing or two else, who knows.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Some stories, laughs, an ability to cook, a thirst for adventure and maybe some maple products and expensive alcohol?
