Nerdy and fun-loving.
I enjoy learning new things, either through exploring new areas on my own or by simply having discussions with people who are much much smarter than me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travelling fills my need for novelty, my passion for adventure/exploration and my love for learning new things. I also love being in nature; as a person who tries to get as much out of life as possible, nature is one of the few things in life that brings me contentment and peace.

I want to use couchsurfing to cut the costs of accommodations in order to capitalize on my investments in the aforementioned areas.

What I Can Share with Hosts

For hosts: If there are any products exclusive to Canada that you request, I will be sure to hand-deliver them to you.

For guests: I own a car and can possibly provide rides to/from the airport (or drop you off in certain parts of town that you wish to explore). I am also a decent cook if you want to cut travel costs by not paying for additional meals.
