I'm from Vancouver Island in Canada.
I've explored much of western Canada and USA.
Currently exploring Queensland, Australia!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Humans are meant to connect. Couch surfing is the perfect way to be thrown into the life of a complete stranger, if only for a brief moment. We're all in it together on this crazy rock, and nothing feels quite like home than the stories we share among ourselves.

Interests

I'm happiest when I'm outside...
Put me in the sun and watch me grow :)

I love spontaneous adventures.

I've been known to wail along with love songs under the stars. You can find me conquering mountains, howling under the full moon, staring into a fire late at night, exploring abandoned buildings, and getting up to general tomfoolery.

I'm a gregarious introvert with a love for novelty and exploration. I'm endlessly curious about the world!

Myer Briggs personality is INTP

Some of the topics that will get me going are... DIY projects, permaculture, minimalism, anti-consumerism, nutrition and supplements, nootropics, clean eating, physical activity, emotional intellegence, non violent communication, parallel universes, duality, travel and transient lifestyles, circus and flow arts, playfulness, festivals, harm reduction, addiction and mental health advocacy, psychology, human development, self awareness, art & creativity and the human experience.

I'm particularly fond of plants, growing food, and eating fruits and veg. I dabble in herbal remedies and love to learn about local plants, animals and fauna.

I wanna learn to surf!!!

I'm always 100 per cent game to go on a hike/walk/outdoor adventure.

I don't watch TV. Pop culture is a mystery to me...

Not huge on drinking. I don't mind the occasional glass of wine - I just prefer to keep my body clean. Besides, I don't need social lubricant, I'm already a bit loud and forward as it is. I'm totally okay with others having a few though, but I'm likely to lean towards a cup of tea instead!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Burning Man <3

Ask me the story about the goat that lived on a boat, and how I went to a music festival with him!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to cook, share stories about travel, listen and try to understand one another. I can teach about basic herbal remedies for common ailments.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can keep things clean and tidy, and cook up a good meal! I'm a respectful guest, love to share and will help to make my impact as minimal as possible. I'll likely water your houseplants and garden while you're away.
