Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love hosting/being hosted. It is a great way to travel and begin to understand the world we live in.

Interests

I love canoe tripping with friends. l love to travel and see how other people spend their lives. A perfect day would consist of going on a big long bike ride, having a picnic with great friends, biking home and making a big supper and then seeing/dancing to live music that evening.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My sister and I were taking the train across Canada for the month of September and we found ourselves in the sky car riding through Northern Ontario. We met a bunch of interesting Canadians there and we ended up singing folk songs all night long with other Canadians.
I went on two 10 day canoe trips in Temagami, Northern Ontario this year and feel in love with the big lakes, rocks and trees. My heart feels at home when I am near a lake.
