Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I’m head in Europe to complete the Camino de Santiago from France to Spain.
ABOUT ME
I’m easy going, adventurous, easy to get along with and enjoy hearing people’s
stories both the weird and wonderful. I believe travel enriches your life and I
choose to make it a priority in mine.
PHILOSOPHY
Regret for the things we did can be tempered by time; it is regret for the things
we did not do that is inconsolable.
Sydney J. Harris
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
My older brother Jarrod hosted several couch surfers when we were all still
living at home. I remember one time we had eleven couch surfers who we hosted.
I regularly show people the sights of my city , which is something I'm passionate about.
One day when I have my own place I aim to return the hospitality and kindness I have been shown throughout the years.
COUCH SURFING EXPERIENCE
Nepal 2011- This was my first experience and it was incredible. Such a warm
and hospitable family and a great introduction.The experience made me realise
that couchsurfing really is the best way to immerse yourself in another
countries culture by getting to know the local people. I'm still in contact with
the family today and I know we will meet again.
Perugia, Italy 2012- I stayed with a wonderful host, who gave up her time
during her university exams to host me and show me around her city.
Boston 2016 - Stayed with an amazing host who despite her crazy busy
schedule hosted 3 other people including myself for 2 days.
Interests
Besides travelling , I also love anything to do with the outdoors- hiking, swimming, skiing and going to the beach.
I have played a lot of sports throughout the years and I currently do BJJ weekly.
I enjoy eating out at new restaurants and bars and sharing a glass of wine with
friends.
Other interests include reading, seeing live bands and listening to music.
My friends and family are everything to me and when I'm not working Im usually spending time with them.

Music, Movies, and Books
April Fools Day by Bryce Cortney.
I listen to all kinds of music old & new . I like lots of classic artists like Bob Dylan.
Movies- Comedies are the best. Too many favourites to mention.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I have lived in the UK for a year in 2005 which was by far the most memorable
year of my life to date. I also lived in Canada and travelled for 16 months through central and South America before the pandemic hit.
The most amazing sights I've ever seen- the Pyramids of Egypt , Victoria Falls in
Zimbabwe and a town called Chefchaouen in Morocco ‘ the blue city’.
I recently hiked in the Grand Canyon , Arizona to Havasu falls which was really
cool . I would highly recommend .
Teach, Learn, Share
I really want to learn Spanish .
