About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Surf, play guitar, sit by bon fires.

ABOUT ME

I'm a small town girl living in a big city. Well...Winnipeg isn't that big, but compared to my little town it is. I always try to have fun and be happy.I always want to learn about new things and see new places. The world fascinates me and I want to explore it.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to live my life in a way so that I am always happy. I always try to exercise the child in me, keep my mind at peace and stay away from negative thoughts. Sometimes that is all hard to acheive, but a little patience and pratice and surrounding myself with positive people is how I do it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope to help fellow travelers see where I'm from and meet people when I'm traveling. This project is great. It helps us to see the world in a different way and to build a better understanding of what goes on around the world when we travel.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed lots with friends living in Winnipeg when I lived in Lorette. It made it easy to go out. With the project I've been all over Europe now. It made my trip a real pleasure. It's so much fun meeting people. At home I've hosted twice and really enjoyed it. I hope to host again soon. So far it has been lots of fun!

Interests

Well...I like to travel. Besides that I like all kinds of stuff: going out with friends, anything to do with music (playing, listening, live, recorded, old, new...), reading, fishing, camping and the occasional scrap booking.
