About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm originally Canadian, but have been living abroad for the past 6 years. I was a student in the Netherlands for 3 years and have been living in Glasgow working full time since graduating. I love gardening, hiking, camping, canoeing and just being outside.

PHILOSOPHY

To get the most out of life, be true to myself and do what I really believe in. Nature and the environment are incredibly important to me, so respect for it is always part of my philosophy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am always happy to host and meet new people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted many people at my house in Delft and every time was so great. I've also spent some time surfing couches in Scandinavia and have met so many fantastic friends. Every CS experience has been better then I could have expected!

Interests

I love to travel (obviously). I love biking, camping, climbing, hiking, yoga, snowboarding, cooking, baking and reading.
I love to knit, draw, paint and make things with my hands. I like to work with wood, metal and fabrics.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite books are generally science fiction, or historical fantasy stuff. I also really love gardening and foraging books.

I love finding new music and listening to an artist for the first time. I absolutely love folk music and especially folk music festivals - but I also love to listen to electronica/pop/rock.

I'm not a huge movie person but I do love Wes Anderson movies.
