I'm a former wrestler on the Canadian national team and have always traveled for sport. This is my first time travelling for leisure and am really excited and nervous at the same time. This will be my first and last vacation in a long time as I am starting Medical School in September so I wanted to make it memorable!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Whenever I open up Facebook Iceland floods my feed. Now that I've seen how beautiful it can be, I know I'd regret it if I didn't take a look for myself!

My girlfriend and I are planning a trip to Iceland between June 3 and 10 and we are looking for a place to stay. We are looking to explore and get immersed in the culture. I also believe there's no better way to find the best places to visit than to speak to a local!
