CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Hi! My name's Ryan. I just finished wrapping up my graduate studies at McGill where I study the genetics underlying elements of the dinosaur to bird transition. I'm looking to stay in Montreal after I graduate but I'm constantly pulled to go out and explore the world. I enjoy learning new things, traveling, biking, reading, and painting.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I'm interested in meeting new people.
When you're visiting somewhere new, isn't it nice to see how the real people that live there experience the place?

Algo increíble que he hecho

I saw the Aurora Borealis one night when I was driving across the middle of Ontario coming back from a Paleo dig at the boarder between Saskatchewan and Montana. It was like magic but FOR REAL!

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I'd be very excited to do a language exchange! I'm in desperate need to improve my Spanish and I really enjoy helping others with English.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I'm an excellent room mate with a heart of gold.
