About Me

I am a 24-year-old recently graduated civil engineer. I work on a light rail transit project in Ottawa, ON, Canada. I've lived in Ottawa my whole life but I have traveled all over North America (except Mexico) and some of Europe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people, to explore and see the word, to experience cultures, and to have adventures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled around Europe for two and a half months. Jumped out of a plane in the Swiss alps. Drove the whole ring road around Iceland.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know Ottawa pretty well. I speak English fluently and some French. I would love to learn Spanish, German or Russian. I usually have a fridge full of beer that I don't mind exchanging for good company. I enjoy BBQing for people as well.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Local knowledge of Ottawa. Lots of nature nearby that I love to show off to non-Canadians and Canadians too. I can share some beer, perhaps some whiskey. I have been known to cook meals for friends. Always willing to have a conversation, whether it be small talk or large philosophical ideas.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, United States, Vatican City State
