Overview
About Me
Hello!
My name is Jenna and I am from a small town in Canada. I love travelling - my Dad is a pilot and my Mum is a flight attendant so I have been really lucky to have been able to travel a lot growing up. I study Political Science and Global Development.
I have been a server in Lake Louise, Canada and a tour guide at Vimy Ridge and Beaumont Hamel in France. I hope to be an ambassador when I am older. I am currently living in Scotland and studying International Relations at St. Andrews University for the year!
Dietary restrictions: Vegan (But don't worry - I always bring my own snacks!)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Some of my favourite travel memories include exploring Parisian art galleries on rainy days, voyaging by sleeper train in India, trying an array of traditional Israeli food in Tel Aviv, kayaking on the Sunshine Coast, riding camels in the Egyptian desert, snorkelling and observing fish in coral reefs in Hawaii, exploring Turkish Bazaars, listening to church bells ring in Vatican City... Travelling has broadened my mind, challenged me to think critically about the world around me and has made me a more internationally-aware individual. I want to share more experiences around the world and make new international friends.
Interests
I love to read, watch British TV shows and doodle.
