Hey I'm janessa!
Half Filipina half Canadian from beautiful Alberta Canada, though I don't spend much time there anymore. I've been traveling for 2 years with a pit stop in Canada in between to earn some money to travel again! I've got a lot of gratitude towards this world and the people that have generously picked me up hitching, gave me somewhere to sleep, fed me, and shared time with me on my travels. experiencing new cultures and meeting new people. I'm curious. I'm open minded. I just want to be a human with other humans and c o n n e c t
Theres so much more to people than whats on the surface, I love hearing about what someone is passionate about, their goals, what makes them happy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To make friends and connections from travelling would be the ultimate goal. I also love meeting with locals and getting to know their cultures and history. The world is such a massive place with so many wonderful people that through this site I will hopefully have the opportunity to connect with so many people.

Interests

I'm a lover of The Planet, sustainable living, good vibes, down to earth people. I appreciate running and the outdoors. I live off of live music and avocados. Photography is my jam and I'm a pretty average hula hooper

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music, especially live. My tastes are always fluctuating - reggae is a jam at the moment

I love everything NatGeo, films, photography and magazines. National Geographic is the reason why I want to discover.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hopped on a plane right after high school and got the hell out of routine. Travelling has had the biggest impact on my outlook of life. I grew a lot in this time, mentally and spiritually. Discovered what's really important to me in this fraction of a second on this earth.

Teach, Learn, Share

Learning is one of the most important things you can do in a lifetime, to have the opportunity to be educated is very valuable. That being said I love learning about anything and everything so teach me what you know!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Not one for small talk. I love to connect with people on a deeper scale than surface conversation. We are intricate beings that hold many stories and energy that should be shared! I know a bit about farming and I can teach you how to use a camera or maybe hula hoop
