Overview
About Me
I am a positive, go with the flow person who's always looking for her next adventure! Very positive, happy and upbeat. 🙂
I am a good conversationalist, I love meeting new people and am interested in learning about their lives and their culture. While I’m in Thailand I want to learn as much as possible about Thai culture and Buddhism.
I did my BA Honours Degree in Criminal Justice and minored in Gender Equality and Social Justice. I am very much an advocate for all things Social Justice related, I'm a feminist and an activist for equality. I want to learn about new cultures and and hopefully come out with a research topic for my future Graduate Studies in Social Justice.
I am from Ontario, Canada but I am currently working as an English Teacher and living in Tak city, Tak, Thailand. I am also currently learning to speak Thai🙂
Looking for things to do in the evenings, on the weekends, and looking for friends to hangout or explore with 🙃
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm looking to make connections and friends, no matter their area of life, age, ethnicity or place of residence. I am super interested in learning from locals in hopes to truly experience various cultures and beautiful landmarks, cities and countries through social interaction and personal knowledge. I see Couchsurfing as a great opportunity to meet people who share similar values, it's a venue for solidarity.
I dropped out of Graduate School to come teach English in Thailand!
