Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have had one excellent couchsurfing experience so far - looking forward to more, and being able to host in the future!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

New to couchsurfing, but keen to try it and meet interesting new people while seeing exciting new places!

Interests

I like long walks, wandering big cities, meeting new people, sharing new experiences, eating, drinking, dancing, laughing, skiing, cooking, reading, watching old movies, discovering new music, and being by the ocean.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living and working in the Canadian rockies and being blown away every day by the seemingly never-ending beauty of the mountains stretching everywhere the eye can see. Very privileged to have called that place home!
Visiting war graves in Europe was also pretty special. Not the most lighthearted of trips but definitely an enlightening experience.

Tolerance is the key to understanding.
