Overview
About Me
Curious, adventurous,
I'm from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. I currently live in Calgary, Alberta while I attend the Alberta College of Art + Design. I am eager to learn about the world, and once I'm done my degree I look forward to doing quite a bit of traveling.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
For now, I want to use Couchsurfing to make travel a bit easier. When I'm able to, I plan to host travelers in an effort to both make traveling easier for others and to learn from others.
Interests
I am interested in languages, and I plan to learn many throughout my life.
I am interested in sports including fencing, cycling, running, and swimming.
I really like anything that goes fast, from bicycles to motorcycles to cars, and even ultralight aircraft(which I haven't had the opportunity the get into yet, but it's in the books).
I am becoming more and more interested in craft beer and I'm eager to sample local beers wherever I go. In addition to part-time bartending at my student association run bar, I am interested in cocktails(primarily gin and vodka, but I enjoy spiced rum and tequila as well).
I've recently started getting back into Alto Saxophone, which I played during high school.
