About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore Europe, Explore Myself, See Whats Out There.

ABOUT ME

I graduated from University last year and had been working for a consulting firm after spending the summer backpacking through Europe by myself. I'm also a vegan and love to cook, so its always great to meet people who are passionate about cooking or veganism. Met a ton of awesome CS people who have helped me out in my travels, happy to give others a place to crash if I can!

PHILOSOPHY

"Its better to regret something you did, than something you didn't do"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed a bit while traveling around Europe two summers ago. I was a little hesitant at first but had nothing but amazing experiences and met awesome people that I never would've otherwise gotten to know.

Interests

I love food and eating. I like to meet new people and experience new things. I'm definitely more of a city person. I enjoy going out at night, especially in new places, but am not a crazy partier. I love music and am always listening to my ipod. I would consider myself to be a very open-minded and considerate person, and I would hope those who know me would agree.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living in Rome has was an incredible experience for me. I've seen or learned something new everyday I've been here. Another amazing experience for me was climbing to the top of mountains outside Whistler, British Columbia in summer of 2010. Backpacking through Europe was an experience I'll never forget, I saw and did so much, and can't wait to get back.
