I'm currently at McGill University studying Latin American and Caribbean Studies. I love traveling, the outdoors, food, drink, and good company. I grew up fishing, hiking, biking and swimming and love to try new things. I'm trying to learn a bit of photography and also how to surf (better).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

hopefully, to help alleviate some travel costs, definitely to meet good people. Plus, it's always more fun to meet locals and share experiences and learn more about the places I visit.

Interests

The outdoors - camping, trekking, hiking, biking, swimming, fishing, surfing, snowboarding, anything that gets me up on my feet and exploring! - reading and writing, photography, frisbee, lying on the beach, history.
