About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I love to create things out of stuff I find in nature and I love to travel because I get to meet the most interesting people I never would otherwise. I love accents. Love to have fun and live in community.

ABOUT ME

I am studying homeopathy at the moment and am really passionate about my studies. I am always looking for fun things to do and find solace in natural settings near lakes, streams and ponds. I love travel because of the people you get to meet. I love to laugh. I love hot springs. I love to share great, healthy food with a bunch of people. I love my friends and my family.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life to discover all that life has to offer and am learning to find out what freedom really is by letting go of limitations and beliefs that no longer serve me. I am an explorer, a seeker and a lover.
Life is about being love and rediscovering what that really is and feels like all of the time.
Also, 'variety is the spice of life!'

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to get set up somewhere so I can start hosting people on my couch and get to know people from all over the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had my first couchsurfing experience in Cusco, Peru and it turned out to be the best experience ever. I ended up staying with the people I met in an ashram and lived there for the remaining month and a half of my trip. The connections I made with these people were so strong and I am so grateful for it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived in an ashram in Cusco and had a taste of communal living with some of the most beautifully warm and accepting people I know.
Living in a house in Canmore with 4 other people was one of the best things I've ever been a part of. It made me want to live close to my friends all of the time and meet so many people from different parts of the world.
