Overview
About Me
I'm a student learning about the ways that humans are messing up the planet and how to fix it. I'm especially passionate about the agricultural system and social justice. I love travelling by ways of working and living in places, not just visiting. I love music and am passionate about good food, wine and art. Learning about new cultures and gaining different perspectives is the key to understanding each other and learning to work together. Originally from Ontario Canada, but live in Nova Scotia most of the year, and work wherever in summers.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I want an experience beyond seeing the surface of cities. I want to meet people who share similar interests (travel or otherwise) and expand my horizons. I think it's a unique and modern way to get connected with people and places. I previously have only travelled in groups or worked where I travelled so up to this date I haven't been able to do Couchsurfing, but I look forward to being able to do it quite a lot!
Interests
Like I said I love music, most things from Beethoven to Kendrick (not screamo or heavy metal those I can't really do). My life motto is life is too short for anything except good food, good drinks and good company. I love to hike and be outdoors, as well as curl up inside with a good book. My biggest interest is probably in learning new things, if you're interested or passionate about it I probably can hop on board.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Cliff dived in Quebec into the river we were white water rafting on. Not sure if it's amazing, but I'm proud that I didn't chicken out.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach basic guitar and piano, how to make any recipe vegan, weird facts about nutrition and plants. Kind of a broad random assortment of knowledge on many things.
What I Can Share with Hosts
A super laid back presence that goes with the flow and will not put anything out of place, but will do my best to create a positive experience for everyone. I can share stories, but also have an ear for others adventures.
