About Me

Hi! I'm an avid sailor and outdoors person and a happy recent transplant to Halifax! I am currently completing a graduate degree in geological oceanography at Dalhousie University working on coastal erosion in the Bay of Fundy. When I'm not studying or working I'll generally be found on the water or close to it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have travelled extensively in the United States and to a lesser extent in Mexico and Canada. As a student I understand the urge to travel and the unfortunate realities of not having enough money to do so. Travel should be all about meeting new people and exposing oneself to different cultures; what better way to do that than to stay with someone on an interactive level such as couchsurfing?
