CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

My parents named me Jaclyn but I am most responsive to Jax or Jac.

I love sports (most of em' at least) and am content playing them, watching them and definitely love making new ones up!!

I LOVE punctuation and definitely overuse my favourites (the semi colon and the exclamation mark). In addition to punctuation, I also love grammar and go out of my way to use full sentences and correct spelling; I even use it in emails and text messages!

I have a traveling spirit about me and I'm seriously starting to worry if I'll ever want to settle.
I've loved everywhere I've gone and I can't pinpoint a favourite place or favourite moment because they've all been so special.

I'm a book nut and am always looking for a great read so please don't be shy.. recommend something amazing!

I'm passionate about my job which also makes me passionate about people :)

PHILOSOPHY

Live only for today.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A friend told me about couchsurfing a few years ago but I didn't remember about it until recently. I only started surfing in sept 07 and have had amazing experiences so far!
The hospitality I've been shown has exceeded any expectations I could have had!
I look forward to more wonderful experiences and hope to host in the near future!
