I've lived in Whitehorse, Yukon for almost 20 years and love it here!

I'm pretty quiet, but I love meeting strangers and learning about their joys and challenges in life.

In Sept 2018 I'm making a small bicycle tour in Belgium and Zeeland.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm usually found on Warm Showers (for cycle tourists), but it's cold out so my bike is put away for the winter. I thought I would try Couch Surfing since my sister is a long-time member and speaks highly of her experiences with it.

Interests

I love being in motion--hiking, biking, or paddling, but am also happy to stop and look at the birds, lichen, or clouds.

I am interested in health and healing within the context of one's own life.
