CURRENT MISSION
Keep adventuring, even with a kids in tow.

ABOUT ME
I am an outdoors enthusiast, and I like to take on a challenge. I am a vegetarian and I love to cook and try new types of cuisine. My second baby was born in December 2016, and I am back to work full-time while my partner stays home with the kids

PHILOSOPHY
My personal philosophy could be boiled down to taking opportunities as they come and giving back to the people and communities that support you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
So far, I have really enjoyed hosting surfers and showing what small-town Canada has to offer.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
We have hosted a few couchsurfers at our place in Kincardine. Great expereince so far! I met up with a couchsurfer for a bicycle tour of Rome, it was awesome to see the city from a local's perspective.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really love listening to cbc radio 2 and enjoy mostly all the music they play. Some of my favourite bands are Hey Rosetta!, the Arkells and Whitehorse.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Trekking the Routeburn Track in New Zealand. Running along the shores of Lake Huron in my town. Skiing in the Alps by myself in a snowstorm and not crashing or getting lost.

Teach, Learn, Share

I work in public health, so I could offer to teach or discuss about health-related stuff(I am not a doctor or nurse, so I can't help you with your ailment). I also teach and coach swimming, so I could offer lessons or stroke correction.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Right now I can offer baby cuddles and toddler playtime. Not sure if anyone will want to host parents of two kids 2 and under, but maybe there are other couchsurfing parents out there!
