MAYBE accepting guests. My life is pretty busy right now.

CURRENT MISSION

To learn Swedish and travel all over Scandinavia while I'm here.

ABOUT ME

I think everyone has difficulties describing themselves. I am a university student. I am a scientist. I think I am open minded, easy going, silly and fun loving. I love being around people, but I also enjoy having some solitude to read and listen to music once in a while.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't let the bastards grind you down.

I think this phrase originally has wartime influence, but it was repeated in a Margaret Atwood book I read. I think the point of it is realizing that there are so many great people out there, so it is important not to let the few bad ones make you cynical.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted a few times, and I have couch surfed a bit in Germany and I loved it. I can teach you about both Sri Lankan culture and Canadian culture, cook traditional foods, and hopefully make you feel at home.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My experience has been amazing. I am overwhelmed by the kindness of people.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I woke up to watch wild elephants bathing in the river across from my uncle's house in Kandy, Sri Lanka. The little ones would hold onto their mother's tail with their trunks.
