I am a travelling Aussie, currently living in Montreal and I have just two months left of my two year Working Holiday Visa left! I worked and lived in Vancouver for a year before Montreal. I have realised I love myself most when I am outdoors and exploring nature, although I am drawn to urban culture, coffee and art as well. My nose is usually buried in a book if I'm not cloud watching or talking to butterflies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
