I grew up on a sustainable living centre in. Southern Ontario where travelers, educators or any bedless person could come to stay. As a kid I grew up with visitors from around the world teach me skills like cooking, languages, art and massage. Growing up in this environment helped me see how much there is to learn from other people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have spent many years of my life being a host for travelers. All that time, I have wanted to be the traveler and I felt that couch surfing would be a great fit.
