Currently pursuing a Masters of Environmental Toxicology and doing my best to get to know the world a little bit before I save it!

I grew up on the West Coast of Canada, and there is a part of me that is always seeking the coast ..! I am at my happiest when I am outdoors - hiking a mountain, canoeing n kayaking, (trying) to surf, exploring waterfalls, searching for holes to swim in and cliffs to jump off, wandering aimlessly..!

That being said, I also love discovering the wilderness of a city and it's dwellers ! Exploring the streets and their artists, bars and live music (!!) bookshop and cafés, people and their passionate critiques/ideas/questions... And of course the food!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I use couchsurfing to find places to stay in search of the genuine side of a city and to meet people who want to meet people!

As well, I've always had a great time using CS to meet up with people - if anyone has a good idea for a hike, a road trip, some live music... Or just want to sit in a park and drink mate, let's meet up!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of my favourite trips was a road trip down the south coast of Portugal... one car stuffed with four (soon-to-be) friends, 1 air mattress and two sleeping bags... Perfect.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've got an ongoing list of things I want to learn - anyone with a knack for slacklining out there?

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer you my favourite recommendations from my music library, and will eagerly take yours.

And, perhaps most importantly, I make killer pancakes and/or cinnamon buns !

And of course, come stay with me in Vancouver :)
