I never really know what to say in these but I'm from Canada and I'm currently on my first backpacking trip. Did a bit of SE Asia and I'm about to start my working holiday in Australia.

I left for my trip to gain new perspectives in life and to immerse myself in different cultures. Before I left on my trip I was on that "normal" path in life, (go to school, get a job) but I found that to be very dull and I felt like I needed something more in life. So I left school, and left in September and I haven't looked back since. During this trip I've learned so many things that school doesn't teach you and I truly feel that what I'm doing is the best thing for me to do.

Im a very open minded and easy going person and I believe the best conversations are made with good food and a beer. I like to be adventurous and active and I'm willing to try anything at least once. I also love being outdoors and going on hikes and camping. I'm really into photography so if you have any tips and tricks to share that would be greatly appreciated.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I feel like this is the perfect way to get to know locals and fully immerse myself in different ways of living and to gain new perspectives. I would also like to feel that "home" atmosphere that I've been missing since I left for my trip and it would be nice if I were able to make life long friends through this.
