I am super excited to share travel experience, learn about culture, and meet new people from all around the world! Please note I only stay with verified members with references, and prefer to only host verified and referred as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have not surfed yet, but I have hosted a couple times and loved it! I love the idea of helping people enjoy their travel experience to the fullest without worrying about paying for a hotel or sharing a room with a bunch of strangers at a hostel. At least in my home my boyfriend and I are the only strangers and you get your own room for free :-) I also love the opportunity Couchsurfing provides to meet people and have a local to show you around or provide recommendations. What a great thing we've got going on!

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies with twists. Thrillers, dramas, comedy if there's also a good plot.

Music with feeling. Particular to rock music but I like a bit of everything.

Books that are well-written and that pull me in and don't let go! My favorite has to be 1984 by George Orwell. Papillon by Henri Charrière is a great true story, anything by Neil Strauss (his writing is so captivating), S.G. Browne, Mandasue Heller... I am particular to dystopian fiction but I really like all kinds of writing. I would love to write a novel one day.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Took a train up into the Swiss Alps. Absolutely breathtaking.

Teach, Learn, Share

I went to school for English and love linguistics. I would love to help travellers improve their English or French, and would love to improve my own French with someone who is an expert at it! I would also love to learn a third language, and learn about what it's like to live somewhere other than Ottawa!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Definitely not my body (just putting that out there!!) but I would love to buy you some drinks and/or food in exchange for hosting me!
