Hey hey! Melody here, I live in Toronto, Canada, and work in digital marketing.

I just got back from 6 months in SE Asia and China, and am soon off to explore the East Coast of Canada on a road trip! I work remotely, which means lots of laptop in the car action, but it's been such a blessing so far :)

I'm super respectful and easy-going. I'd love to tag along and explore your city together, and I'm always open to new experiences!

Just left: Costa Rica

Next Stop: Rimouski, QC

Upcoming Travel Plans: Quebec, New Brunswick, PEI, and Nova Scotia!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming in the ocean after dark in Costa Rica, surrounded by millions of brightly glowing bioluminescent dinoflagellates. Life-changing.

Spending the night in Hang En Cave, the 3rd largest cave in the world, got some gnarly leech bites in the process but it was surreal.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you're editing something for typos, read it from the end backwards - I promise you'll catch things you'd have otherwise missed.
