About Me

"I was surprised, as always, by how easy the act of leaving was, and how good it felt. The world was suddenly rich with possibility."

Hi! My name is Shandi Newman, I am 26 years old and from Vancouver Island in Canada. I have always lived a very free sprited and adventerous life which has led me on many amazing adventures in the past. I love meeting new people and exploring and just living the fullest life I can while I am young :)

Although I have just re joined couchsurfing I have used this website before in my travels and absolutley love it! I hope my lack of references does not worry you as I am just starting a new adventure and slowley my profile will be full of new experiences.

I am excited to meet you and explore the city! Thank you so much for considering to host me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My trip across Canada solo was the most lifechanging experience I have ever had. Sometimes you need to drop everything and detatch yourself from the real world for a moment and do something amazing and extraordinary to really appreciate everything again. I met so many genuine, beautiful people it really was something I will never forget.
