Follow me on Instagram! @krissyboo75

ABOUT ME

I am optimistic and easy-going, punctual and people tell me my happiness makes others happy. I am a loving traveler looking to make friends. I am always up for adventures and learning new things.

I don't like small talk that much and I love getting into deep conversations about life
I know that my only dream in life is to travel the world and so I am trying to slowly do so.

I love animals and especially dogs! Show me pics of your dog and Ill swoon all day!

PHILOSOPHY
Not all those who wander are lost

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to meet friends as I travel and offer to hang out with folks who want to travel where I am!

I also want to stay with local couchsurfers so I can learn more about where I am staying.

I can't offer a place to stay because all I have is a floor in a one room (unless you dont mind sleeping on the floor next to me), but I can definitely show you around, take you for food, and to attractions.

I was living in South Korea for 7 years and am now living in Canada with my boyfriend
