Hi there- I'm Richelle, a newly graduated veterinarian from BC Canada. I grew up on a west coast hobby farm (think horses, llamas, donkeys, peacocks, etc.) before moving to central Canada for veterinary school. Being from the lovely west coast, I love everything BC has to offer and have strong interests in hiking, horseback riding, nature, camping, kayaking, and the such. I did my undergrad at UBC with a combined major in Biology, Chemistry, and Environment before continuing on to vet school in Saskatchewan where I lived during the (harsh, unforgiving) winters. I just finished up last month and am doing some exploring before moving to work in New Zealand this fall.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

Cheese rolling at the Whistler Cheese Festival- chasing a 20 pound wheel of cheese in a race to the finish down a steep hill. It was completely as glorious and dignified as it sounds.
