Overview
About Me
I’m a student studying TV production and writing in Toronto when I’m not out looking for new adventures. I travel to stay sane and write to stay happy. I always look for new experiences and new stories from all around. I’m travelling for the summer to try to find just that!
I am travelling in England, France, Italy, Austria, Czech Republic, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Greece and as many more as I can fit this summer!
I am a lover of deep conversations; history, philosophy, nature, space, pop culture. I want to get to know a person's values and that can only be done by getting to them really well!
I would love to cook together, drink a glass of wine/beer/liqueur and become friends in the time we have together. That way, when you come to Canada - I can show you my world like you showed me yours!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
The idea of meeting locals while travelling is a dream! If people travel and never meet anyone in the city, are they really travelling? A movie or TV show can show us how a city looks but only the people that live there can show us how the city moves and breathes.
I am on a four-month backpacking trip and hostels can be very cold and difficult after a time. Sometimes getting to know a person in their home can give that feeling of being home again with some true and lovely human connection.
Interests
I love hearing other peoples stories. I am a history lover and we all have our own stories in our past and in our future. As a writer, I want to learn as much as I can that is beyond myself. I would love to just have a conversation to enrich ourselves as that is the best way to feed creativity!
