ABOUT ME

Hi my name is Kristi! My 1 year old Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever and myself are about to leave on a 3 month road trip, stopping at various locations in Canada and across the US, promoting positive change through the act of volunteering. We are so excited for new opportunities, and we are open to meeting people from all walks of life.

PHILOSOPHY
Positive thought is key to love, acceptance, joy. The words, thoughts that we put out into the world is what becomes our reality. We live in such a critical world, we hope to spread the message that volunteering, big or small will not only impact communities, families, friends BUT more importantly bring goodness and peace into mind and life of the person volunteering.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
