About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See and do as much as I can in Florianapolis and Rio!

ABOUT ME

I've lived in Canada my whole life, but studied one year abroad in 2007-2008 in Sheffield, England.
I love traveling. I'm spontaneous, friendly, and approachable.
I have a great sense of humour and am really easy going. I speak English and French but have been working hard on my spanish.
I spin House Music for fun and other EDM and enjoy playing sports (mainly hockey, golf, and beach volleyball) in my spare time.
Not a huge fan of the tourist trap attractions, but I do like some. I'd prefer to get to know locals and check out some of the sites and destinations off the beaten path.

"When in Rome".

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is pretty relaxed. We may only live life once, so get out there and mix it up. If it takes you 25 years to come out of your shell, that's 25 years of missing out that you'll never get back.

I think I can get along with anyone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I moved to Toronto four years ago and work full time but I am available to host on occasion. I have couch surfed in the USA for weekends and around Europe.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Pamplona, Spain for San Fermin, the bull running festival, I've been there twice now and have stayed with 14-20 Spaniards in a friend's apartment downtown. It was the most influential destination abroad and I'm going back there again!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Went on Exchange to Sheffield, England in my 3rd year of my Finance Degree. It was one of the best years of my life!

Teach, Learn, Share

I've been a University student for 5 years. I've also lived in both Canada and England, so I can relate the differences for anyone traveling between Europe and North America.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook a few dishes really well. I talk a lot and have lots of fun and interesting stories and experiences to share.
