About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Stay put... with as many random side adventures as possible!

ABOUT ME

Love going to new places, meeting people, moving around, and get restless when I'm in one place too long. Since the ripe old age of 7 years, traveling has always been a part of my life. When I'm not traveling oversees, I'm trying to explore every corner of Canada, but it's a big country, I think I'll be working on it for awhile. It's also the little things that make life good, sitting at home with a good book, going with friends for a beer, and being outside when the sun is out!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have had a great time surfing in Australia, Malaysia, the Philippines, and New Zealand. And I have met many CS members for coffee, at meet ups, traveling, and surfing. Now that I'm 'settled' in Toronto I have had the pleasure of giving back the good vibes that were given to me when traveling and have been hosting people when I can.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While traveling I have had nothing but one great experience after another! It completely changes the way you feel your travels, from the people you hang out with, to the places you go, and the experiences you find yourself in. Now that I am back in Canada I'm really excited to be on the other side of things and welcome travelers here.
