ABOUT ME
I'm a Torontonian with a penchant for travel. I'm a fan of meeting new people, genuine conversations, and spontaneous adventures. I love seeing cultural differences and finding common ground, expression through sidewalk chalk and drinking a good cup of cocoa. I'm not great but I do enjoy sports and frolicking in the sun.I'm into all types of music: indie, rock, jazz, electronic, classical, country (gasp! I know!). and i've always got an assortment of instruments lying around the house. i'm unfortunately addicted to live music and quality vinyls. Also love art, design and lettering/typography, I'm always up for spontaneous art projects

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have surfed in the Netherlands and Paris, also attended CS meetings worldwide, met up with other surfers to conquer cities :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I trekked through the Netherlands and Paris couchsurfing and was hosted by the most fantastic of hosts! Everyone was so incredibly friendly and was happy to share their city with us
While in Hong Kong, I met up with couchsurfers to hike and hang out and play guitar :)
I can't wait to do more couchsurfing!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One? Here are a few! Staring at the milky way whilst climbing Kilimanjaro... it was an astounding sight that took my breath away (on second thought, that could be altitude induced). Driving through Alps. Seeing Elephants/lions/pumbas/giraffes in the wild. Witnessing the resilience of hope.
