Overview
About Me
I've lived in Quebec, Ontario, Alberta and B.C. and now have been living Toronto for 7 years. I'm currently working as a travel agent, I like to play sports (soccer, hockey, ultimate), board games and guitar. I like exploring cities by bike, learning new things and meeting people.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I tried couchsurfing a few times between farmstays on a European adventure in 2011 and was instantly hooked! I met amazing, generous people that made the trip so much more enjoyable. Each of my experiences as a Couchsurfing host or guest has reminded me of how many trusting, welcoming people there are in our world :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've bushwhacked alone for a day in the Canadian Rockies from Maligne lake to Sunwapta Falls...I stood on a mountain between 2 ranges surrounded by snow covered peaks and not a sole in sight.
