Overview
About Me
***Although I'm not "verified", I could provide you with work references if that's helpful.
I love what I do for a living, even though at times, I'm living hand to mouth. It is so satisfying being able to see a patient come in with their physical (and sometimes mental and emotional) issues, and leave feeling so much better. I took the equine elective in school, and practice sometimes on animals, whether my own, or someone else's (I'm usually the one at a party making friends with the cats and dogs that live there, lol!).
I am the proud parent of six fur babies, 5 felines, and 1 canine. I'm in the process of getting my dog, Ideally, I would love to have some land where I can have a sanctuary and rescue all sorts of animals. But for now, I love my Parkdale/Liberty Village neighbourhood in Toronto.
I identify as Rasta, with strong roots in Wicca. Part of this means that I'm vegan. But I'm not just vegan because my spirituality tells me so. It's at the core of my being. I'm finding out more and more every day how meat, dairy, and eggs really are NOT good for humans to consume, and how the industry is destroying Mother Earth. It simply takes way less energy and resources to raise crops for humans than it does to raise crops for "meat" that humans will then eat. Cut out the middle man! Besides, vegans taste better ;)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm on Couchsurfing because I love meeting new people and travelling. I love showing people around my city of Toronto, and have been told that I could even carve out a niche tour guide job for myself! I could certainly show you all the cool vegan places around town! If you would like to rent a bike, the BEST thing about Toronto and General Toronto Area is the network of trails!

Music, Movies, and Books
I love reggae, hip-hop, dub-step, house, psy-trance to dance to, but I also really love jazz, blues, soul, r&b...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Held a deceased racoon, and a baby piglet in memoriam for NARD, National Animal Rights Day. Never cried so damn hard in my life.
Recovered from a fractured pelvis and wrist sustained March 16, 2017!
Teach, Learn, Share
I could teach you how to make some jewelry maybe? I could also show you some massage therapy techniques, but keep in mind, that doesn't certify you as a massage therapist. I have a loooot of info about vegan stuff, the environment, and other social activism subjects.
What I Can Share with Hosts
vegan meals, touring around...
