I'm a 18 year old from British Columbia, Canada. I'm taking a gap year to travel around Europe for 8 months. I am really interested in all forms of art, especially photography and film. I am big on environmental issues (ex. plastic pollution), and human rights. I tend be shy at first, but once I'm comfortable I open up a lot more. I am not a picky eater, but if I have the choice I would choose to eat vegetarian or vegan. I am very open minded, and love meeting new people!

Please no racists, trump supporters, LGBTQ haters, or anyone of that sort. We're all human here✌🏼

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I don't mind staying in hostels, but I feel like I'm missing the true local experience. I am on Couchsurfing to live the local life of the place I'm staying, and have the opportunity to make life long friends and connections. I will invest my time in the hosts life as well, wether its taking them out for a drink, or helping them with dishes, etc...

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite movie is probably Eat, Pray, Love. It really gets my imagination going.

I'm into all sorts of music, not Country though. Music tastes change with what mood or environment I'm in.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Leave home at the age of 18 and travel Europe (what I'm doing right now)

Teach, Learn, Share

I would be more than willing to help improve English, share my little knowledge of photography and video editing.

I am really interested in languages, so learning the local language would be great.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Laughs, smiles, friendships and life long connections. I would be willing to take my host out for a coffee or drink, or cook a meal. I won't be one of those people that uses the host as a free place to sleep. I want to learn about the local life, visit, help the host with dishes, etc...
