ABOUT ME

i like trains, looking at the sky, travelling, and biking.

i recenlty-ish moved back to toronto (with a few bouts of travel after that), so i'm catching up with myself and friends.. meandering through life and trying to figure out a plan for myself for the future.

i'm seriously into being cosy right now, learning in lots of ways, and finding and fueling inspiration, courage, and passion.. working odd jobs, cooking up a storm, and sometimes making things :)

i've hitchhiked from coast to coast in canada over two summers. i met my girlfriend through couchsurfing and we live together now and she's the best :)

i like to keep an eye out for travel buddies for encapsulated escapades and i'm very much into hosting travellers. i'd love to collaborate on travel zines or other community/creative projects! i hope we can at least share some stories and have a few meals together.

PHILOSOPHY

into:
sentimental things
space. in every sense.
holistic health and sustainable living
dreamy plans and imaginings
feeling present
seeing beauty
being curious and questioning
appreciating the people i know and love
learning about nature, plants, and gardening
cooking/eating/thinking about food
challenging myself to live more radically

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i want to reciprocate some of the wonderful kindness i've experienced in my travels..

supporting free/low-cost travel is really important to me, and being friendly and caring to travellers makes me happy. i love sharing travel/adventure tips, resources, and stories! i find it really inspiring to hangout with people who are curious, respectful travelers and i really appreciate the momentum that travelers can bring into your life with their arrival.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i have been offered many places to stay throughout my travels.. mostly through friends, word of mouth, and circumstance but also through couchsurfing arrangements. i've mostly had really wonderful experiences!

i really enjoy hosting travellers or giving tours of the city i love, toronto. i'm an urban explorer, so if you'd like i can take you to some places you might not otherwise see.
