Outdoorsy, adventurous, and respectful. Love meeting new people and sharing stories from our life experiences. Always up for good conversation, making new friendships, and appreciating the beauty in this world!

I currently work as a physical therapist in Vancouver, BC. I hike every weekend and enjoy anything water-related. I'm moving to Toronto for school in the fall, and I'll be traveling around Canada and the US to see as much as I can before being locked into 4 more years of education!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've hosted people before when I was in Halifax, and found that it was a great way to connect and make friends. I also couch surfed through Germany when I backpacked there 6 years ago, and again it was a great experience.

Unfortunately because I am in transition over the next 2 months, I will unlikely be able to host anybody. However, I hope to have a couch to offer once I move to Toronto.

** My old account has become inactive due to me being away from it for a few years. I had to create a new one because my I cannot log into my old email anymore - if you are looking to see whether I have references or couchsurfing friends, please search Patricia Jiang and you will see my old profile. I just can't access it at the moment :(

Teach, Learn, Share

When camping up the Sunshine Coast, I met 2 bikers from the Czech Republic at dusk who were also looking to camp. I offered to take them in my van since it could store their 2 bikes, and they were happy for the ride. We ended up spending the entire weekend together hiking and camping, and now are the best of friends. Bonus: have a place to stay in CR now! It's experiences like these on an everyday level that motivate me to reach out and connect with others. I look forward to meeting you! :)
