Hello Couchsurfing! My name is Hugh Curtis and I am a 26 year-old recent graduate (MA Criminology) living in Vancouver, British Columbia. I am looking to make travel acquaintances and long-forming friendships from my travels.
Interested in Languages
Interested in Photography
Fluent in English
Learning Spanish
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing appeals to both my (a) frugal nature and (b) desire to truly immerse myself in the cultures that I plan to visit and spend time in. I would much rather make friends and contribute with my company (or helping hands) than to just dump money on a hotel or hostel and be done with it.
Music, Movies, and Books
I enjoy almost any genre of music (save for country); same goes for movies. I am more into non-fiction when it comes to literature, and I tend to stick with more politically-minded books or those that encompass human decision making (e.g. behavioural economics).
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Without much travel experience, this section is unfortunately short - however, I would count playing soccer (football) on Parliament Hill amongst my top experiences.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Good conversation! I can also help with simple physical tasks (such as moving furniture/stored items), as I am quite strong.
My Interests
I greatly enjoy reading, weightlifting, photography, coding, and studying languages. I began learning Spanish in late 2014 to prepare for a visit to Mexico, and have been hooked since, and hope that my progress will aid in my navigation through South America.
