I am an outdoorsy and adventurous person. I start the morning with coffee, and end the day with a tasty beer:) In between I try to be the best person I can be!!

I currently work at a UNESCO world heritage site where I get a chance to bring history alive and welcome visitors spring, summer and fall. In the winters I travel and teach in the Arctic.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really love travelling and meeting new people who are open and honest. I have stayed with strangers and been shown great hospitality around the world and in Canada. When I have a chance, I like to return the favour by hosting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived in the Arctic for 5 years, teaching high school science. I started a kite skiing youth and recreation program there. I've taught 100's of people to kite while travelling around the region. The most amazing thing is that I have made friends in beautiful little remote towns.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a laugh and good company. I am a very good guest and will help cook, clean and can wax your skis!! Certainly I can share stories about Canada, my life and if you are looking to improve your English, was an ESL teacher for 5 years. I also teach kite skiing if you are interested.
