CURRENT MISSION

See all the places without breaking the bank!

ABOUT ME

I'm relaxed and considerate. I'll probably try and make you laugh despite any language barrier. I'm always looking for a fun time. I also will do my best to help out in whatever way I can.

I have lived in Victoria, BC, Canada for years where I have studied Microbiology and Biochemistry and worked teaching kayak, rowing, and canoeing lessons to kids and adults. I will go back to school soon to work on a Masters of Architecture!

Here is a small website which I update with my personal film photography once in a while. It will give you a good idea of what Im interested in as I only take photos in very special moments.

Enjoy! I look forward to meeting you!
