About Me

I'm originally from Canada. I lived in Edinburgh for 12 years, France for 4 and Spain for 2 years.

My business (a tech-startup) is my baby so I spend a lot of time mothering it, making sure it grows up big and strong and like any good mother, I have a lot of expectation for its success in the world. I'm driven by passion and purpose in everything I do, but never more than when it comes to this.

I value honesty above everything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel, meet new friends and have an adventure. I love this community of open-hearted, open-minded people who so generously share their homes, stories and time (no matter how much or little).

Interests

I love laughing, conversation and travelling. I'm learning to swim athletically but I'm far from an athlete.

I love riding my bike in the sunshine and laughing as I speed down hills. That feeling is one of my favourite things in the world.

I can speak eloquently on many topics, but politics truly bores me. I'm passionate about doing what I can to end racism in the world and believe strongly that my greatest contribution is to help white people understand and acknowledge their privilege and help educate young people so ignorance is not perpetuated.

I am an advocate for leading a sex-positive lifestyle. Anything that promotes and embraces sexuality and sexual expression, with an emphasis on safe and consensual sex.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love dancing, to anything that I can feel in my hips. I spend a lot of time devouring hip-hop albums and nothing excites me more (musically) then an MC who can make words submit to his genius.

My favourite movie is: Guess who's coming to dinner
My favourite book is: Shantaram

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was a house and pet sitter for 4 years and travelled all over France caring for people's homes and animals.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have strong marketing and entrepreneurial skills. I have a lot of experience in social media and SEO. I am also a relationship coach, qualified masseuse, aromatherapist and Reiki practitioner.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am open to sharing generously any skills or experiences I have that another may find useful.
