Overview
About Me
Currently living in Cold Lake, Alberta. I'm originally from Nova Scotia, but I've moved around a lot, living in Kananaskis, Southern Ontario, and BC. I did an academic exchange in Sweden and also did solo trips to SE Asia and Tanzania :)
I love adventure and exploring! While travelling I'm always looking for good hikes, cliff-jumping spots, and amazing places to kick back on my hammock.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Mostly to meet new people and get to know a place through the eyes of a local. I also loved to host people at my parent's beautiful house in Cape Breton Island!
Interests
I'm passionate about anything that combines nature and sport: Surfing, snowboarding, hiking, swimming, etc. I also love rugby and soccer! I always enjoy being active and getting some adrenaline pumping.
I also like boardgames, and my favorite foods are tacos and shawarma.
