Traveler, sporty and up for almost anything! I was a professor in Ontario, Canada for 5 years teaching Fitness & Health Promotion as well as Fitness & Lifestyle Management. I wrote for the university for 9 years as well and was also recently a general manager of LA Fitness back home. Needless to say, I love sharing the outdoors with others and I am also equally happy indoors sharing culture, traveling and past life experiences, and every day laughs!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A fellow world traveler recommended Couchsurfing so began using it in South America. I've met several people through couch surfing events and have also stayed with a few in Brazil and the experiences I've been able to share has been much more rewarding for everyone rather than staying in a hotel!
