*Disclaimer: I live on the outskirts of Edmonton now. It's not particularly close to Downtown or Central Edmonton and our public transit is pretty bad. Not the ideal location for people who are looking for night life or to be close to popular places. Fair warning!*

Fascinated with the world's diversity and cultures. I love languages even though I don't speak anything other than English. :( trying to change that... I love to learn new things!

I do non-destructive testing/examination or NDT/NDE for short. Bonus points if you have ANY idea what that means. ;) I work "on call". So it can be pretty difficult for me to know exactly what days I have off. Makes it difficult to be able to host people sometimes.

I'm an avid hockey, soccer/football, and volleyball fan. I love history and enjoy reading and listening to music (except country music). I have a strong dislike for winter. I guess I live in the wrong country then huh!? :P

I have but one request if you stay at my place. I love trying new foods so if you can make one authentic dish from wherever you're from that would be swell! I'm more than willing to help! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Always looking to meet new people from all over the world! Great way to network! I enjoy being able to show people around where I live and I eventually want to travel around the world myself. Its apps like this that allow you to meet people from all over and are able to learn so many things that you would never get the chance to learn elsewhere.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived two years in the Caribbean volunteering.

Saw 5 matches at the FIFA World Cup in Brazil in 2014. Went by myself and didn't know a soul but loved every minute of it!

Teach, Learn, Share

I lived 2yrs in the Caribbean and can tell you of places to go in Jamaica and Nassau, Bahamas.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My body. Kidding... My witty sense of humour and random information/facts that I know! And possibly some sad attempts at cooking?
