I'm a Canadian gal about to finish my undergraduate degree and looking to do a bit of travelling before I start my Master's in Toronto next year. I've backpacked extensively through Europe and Africa and often travel alone. I love chatting over beers, laughing, and eating snacks with pals. News junkie and aspiring journalist.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new pals and experience the places I visit from the perspectives of locals. I'm also hoping to check out some local shows while travelling through the West Coast.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: yo la tengo will forever have my heart.
Fave books: (by) Robertson Davies, Margaret Atwood, Kate Atkinson (among others!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent a month living at a villa outside of Granada (a homestay organized through HelpX) where I helped my host with renovations on her home and spent the rest of the time hiking in the Andalusian mountains.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share good tunes, political debate, fart jokes and a mean guacamole. I'm a great cook (and baker) and am super tidy. Can contribute to household tasks if needed!

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, France, Germany, Kenya, Portugal, Spain, Tanzania
