CURRENT MISSION

Fitting in as much of Europe before I have to go home in May.

ABOUT ME

I am a young girl from Vancouver who is realizing I am getting older and have so much to see and do. Decided last year to come to France for a semester and practice my French, then take some time off to see some of the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just joined couchsurfing, hopefully it will be a good experience and I can host people when I am not traveling and move back home.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None yet, but have heard only positive experiences from friends and aqcuaintances.

Interests

I really like going to concerts and listening to all sorts of music, love reading, watching movies and am addicted to some tv shows (mad men, the wire true blood, for example), enjoy hiking and camping, interested in cooking but lack experience/skills.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went hiking in Chamonix in October (2010) and thought watching the sun set over the Alps as we hiked down was an incredible experience I never imagined would happen in life and won't be soon forgotten.
