Hi all, my wife and I are from Toronto and are on an 8 month sabbatical around the world! My name is Ian and her name is Zahrah. We love to travel and hope to meet new friends who are generous enough to share their city and culture with us!

Together we've been to all sorts of places - from Myanmar to Jordan to Uganda.... we'd love to chat about any shared experiences and or even share tips we've collected along the way!

We're into food... both eating and cooking! We'd love to learn a local recipe from you... and we can show you to make a pad thai or a biryani!

We like to be active and in the outdoors - I am always down to play volleyball and tennis and we both love hiking.

In real life, I work in the renewable energy sector and Zahrah works in the health care industry.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We hope to meet new interesting people!
