CURRENT MISSION

Experiencing what the world has to offer, discovering my creativity and myself outside of routine

ABOUT ME

I finished my degree this past April. After a busy summer f exciting work, I am now traveling Europe with my best friend since grade 1. I bought a one way plane ticket when I graduated so I would give myself the exploration I needed before deciding where and how I want to 'settle' for a while.

I studied for five years at Simon Fraser University in Health Sciences (public health). Throughout my degree I was always traveling, and working various jobs. I have worked for an airline (WestJet), as a research assistant and academic writer, yoga instructor, project manager and of course, at a coffee shop at the start of my degree. I also volunteer my time working in poverty reduction and health policy in BC.

My latest job was working for CityStudio Vancouver where I placed public pianos around the city, started a food rescue program in communities and created a public art mural that 100 people helped paint.

I am a very easy going person that gets along with people well. I am passionate about my work, very authentic by nature and compassionate.

PHILOSOPHY

To always be expanding and experiencing while striving for happiness, love and fulfillment.

Throughout my life I hope to always be learning about this world, about peoples stories, and about myself.

To be happy and fulfilled in my intention and following my dreams no matter how big.

I feel rich because of my amazing support network of family, friends, and mentors.

Formally, I have studied the philosophy of yoga and do carry it with me.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently traveling on my own and am very interested in staying with locals. I've been on the road for 5 months now.

In my previous travel experiences I have been fortunate enough to mostly stay with family and friends, or with families that have taken me in. I am eternally grateful for all the hospitality I have encountered around the world!
I love seeing places from a local's perspective and favorite spots and activities. This is why I choose Air B&B and Couch Surfing when traveling.
I don't remember the last time I stayed in a hotel.

兴趣

I love photography, sustainability, holistic health, and recently picked up dancing for the first time. I love trying new things. I adore nature, mountains, oceans and try to get our of the city for a hike as often as I can when I am at home in Vancouver. If I could watch a sunset every night I would be a very happy girl. I love reading, tea, being cozy and getting to know new cultures (especially through cooking!)

音乐、电影和书籍

ooooh I love reading and music.

A few of my favorite books include Brave New World, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Stardust and of course Harry Potter ;) and am currently reading Ghost Map.

I enjoy a wide variety of music and love being introduced to new sounds. From jazz and classical while I work and study, to folk music on a walk to electronic and Broadway; I love it all!The last concert I saw was a Tribe Called Red. I had never danced so hard in my life. It was a brilliant show!
