Hi !
My name is Jenny and I live in Toronto(North York), ON, Canada.
I am a University of Toronto alumna with a Bachelor in Cognitive Science.

Always pondering my next travel destination :)
What book to read next and what movie to watch.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

Silly me joined couchsurfing as part of a homework assignment for my database course at UofT (we had to design a database that would resemble this website).

I stayed because I am actually interested in the culture and I like the open minded concept of meeting people through hangouts, opening up your home or visiting someone else in their home and meeting new friends that way.

I've hosted people before - just not through Coachsurfing so I know it can be a really rewarding experience both for the host and the guest. A great way to meet new friends!
