I'm a Canadian born, honorary European who has a hard time staying in one place. My thirst for adventure and culture has me bouncing all over the place, and I'm certainly not ready for it to stop. Bubbly, energetic, and feisty would be the best three words to describe me, a little "sugar and spice" as they call it. I'm the type to strike up any kind of conversation with strangers, but I'm also the type who will keep to herself when she feels like it. Music (house and techno) and writing are two big passions of mine, and when my life is not revolving around the two, I am working with children as a nanny/au pair. I've been working with children since I was 18, traveling since 19, and spending every weekend on a dance floor with my favourite djs since 22. I've spent two summers in Ibiza, lived in Italy, Ireland, and Portugal and have visited a lot of European countries, and looking to add more to my list! I currently live in Napoli, Italy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As we all know, traveling is an enriching experience, but it can be quit the expense if not done properly. I'm on Couchsurfing to help keep these new experiences cost efficient, and meet some great people in the process! As a nanny/au pair, I am quite used to staying in homes I'm not familiar with, and I enjoy it because I get to meet new people who can show me their culture and the point of view from a local, wherever I end up. Staying in a hotel is nice, but I don't want the tourist information from the front desk; when in Rome, I want to do as the Romans do.
