Hello Fellow Couchsurfers,

I recently relocated to Nürnberg after living in the beautiful Chiemgau in Southern Bavaria. I grew up in Ottawa, and that is the place I call home. As I am currently working, exploring the city and showing you around is limited to weekends and public holidays.

I'm interested in sports and have always dreamed of working in the sporting goods industry. I have been fascinated with Germany since I was in middle school and have always wanted to live here; I love the history, language and culture.

I'm easy-going and down-to-earth. I enjoy getting to know people; a deep intimate dialogue and clicking with someone appeals more to me than anything else-whether that's in a restaurant, hiking through the woods, walking around town doing some sightseeing or even just hanging out at home while cooking or baking.

I enjoy travelling and meeting new folks. I have travelled across North America, Western and Eastern Europe, Central America, Southeast Asia and the Middle East.

As of now, my favourite destination is Japan! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe the Couchsurfing platform is able to connect people from around the world in ways that other platforms can't. After having experienced that while living in Germany and witnessing all my flatmates hosting people- I realized this was for me. I look for density of meaning in the connections I make.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have done a lot of 'amazing' things but what I consider amazing might seem ordinary to others. I'm happy to share stories of my adventures when we get to know one another.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Arabic & English.

I would like to share good times/stories and laughs with my fellow travellers. I am also happy to cook & bake for you :)

I would love to learn more about your culture/language and what makes us different. Bonus points for those who can help me improve my German!
