Professional photographer and videographer from Canada, but living in Sarasota, FL. Looking to explore and meet some amazing people! I love videography, photography, the outdoors, adventure, spontaneity and travel! I'm on the quieter side but I love meeting new people and having epic adventures. I believe it's super important to seek new and sometimes uncomfortable situations in order to grow, which is one of the main reasons I like travel and couchsurfing. It's the best place to learn new things and grow! Instagram #kirstenquist

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
So far all of my experiences with couchsurfing have been amazing! I've met amazing locals and had the pleasure of seeing new places through their eyes. I'm always looking for new people to meet to learn from, laugh with, and go on adventures with! I can't accept guests for the next couple of months, but I hope to soon so that I can meet travelers here and give them a nice spot to stay for a couple nights and meet new adventurous friends! *NOT tinder surfing!*
Music, Movies, and Books
I like most music but I'm partial to indie, rock, and classical. A few favorite bands are Muse, Coldplay, U2, Mumford and Sons, Mother Mother, Sfujan Stevens, Imagine Dragons, Arctic Monkeys, Black Keys to name a few. I'm a massive Lord Of The Rings nerd, no hiding that haha. I like most types of movies though. Some that pop into my mind right now are the Joker, Mad Max Fury Road, Iron Man, The Dark Knight, Zoolander, District 9, Nightcrawler, A Quiet Place, 90's Disney (Lion King, Tarzan & Hercules were my go tos)
