About Me

Currently I'm living in Vancouver. I am on a journey to explore all the countries in the world, however long that may take! I got my love for travel from my family because we would relocate every few years to a new city or country. I don't think I'll be able to settle down for a while still haha..

I love spending time in nature, learning new languages, delving deeper into my spiritual practice, or reading and rereading so many books I've lost count. I prefer a simple way of life over city living (although if the city is near a beach or forest I'll make an exception). I am vegan and love to cook!

I'm not into partying, drinking, etc anymore so probably won't be up for doing that. I prefer to explore the city and nature, have long conversations about all kinds of things and ideally wake up early to meditate and occasionally do some yoga practice (if I'm not too tired from travels or being my old night owl self).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet locals all around the world and experience things more authentically wherever I go. I'm very independent and like to do my own thing most of the time, that's why I choose to travel solo.

Will be in USA for July - August, then later travelling throughout Central America from September onwards for an undecided amount of time.

Music, Movies, and Books

Trevor Hall, The Radio Dept and Turnover: my three favourites to listen to.

I've watched The Parent Trap way too many times I can recite the entire movie by now. Submarine is a more serious favourite.

Books... don't get me started I'll end up writing a novel about all the ones I love.
