ABOUT ME

Hello New Friends!My name is Jackie I am a 30 year old Law Student and Anglophone living in Canada's oldest and French-ist city. I live close to the faboulous Plains of Abraham and trendy rue Cartier. Being a law student means either being super busy or playing hard it seems, with the odd mellow evening. That's to say that I am a pretty active person, I love hosting and being a tourist in my own beautiful city, but I also love meeting new friends in new cities. I have never officially surfed before, but I am really looking forward to it!

PHILOSOPHY

There is far too much awesome in the world to mope for too long. Shit naturally happens no matter what, so its just best to focus on the good times!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted about a dozen surfers with my ex, and each time it was AMAZING!! It made me feel like I was backpacking in my own living room! I'm excited to do some surfing!

Interests

I'm a pretty active person, I try to move everyday. I'm endlessly curious, I ask lots of questions. I have recently really gotten into styling hair-an odd hobby but I really find it fascinating. Obviously I read, but I do it less for pleasure these days as I spend most of my time reading or studying, I usually do something more social in my free time. I like hosting themed parties, well parties full stop.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was attacked by a fish while diving the Great Barrier Reef-it scared the hell out of me, and I loved it. --Looking for Grizzlies at midnight under the Yukon's midnight sun, again, it scared the hell out of me, and I loved it.
I once served Tim Curry (as in Rocky Horror Picture Show) in a restaurant in my home town, he left me an awesome tip.
I hiked up a volcano and through a cloud forest in Nicaragua. It was pretty muddy, but awesome.
