Overview
About Me
Hey there! It's been way too long since I've visited couchsurfing, and I'm excited to maybe try it out again closer to home here in Canada
A bit about me (in point form, because hey why not!)
- I'm 25
- I'm a recent grad of MacEwan University where I studied Graphic Design!
- Living in the great white north (AKA Edmonton, AB)
Aside from those basics, I've done my fair share of travelling over the past few years and have now decided to settle somewhere for more than a week (crazy I know!) to work as a Graphic Designer.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I've met a few really awesome people through Couchsurfing and would love to continue these great experiences by meeting even more!

Music, Movies, and Books
I am a huge nerd when it comes to movies, I love watching the Marvel Series (The Avengers, Iron Man, Captain America, etc.), The Harry Potter Series, as well as psychological thrillers (The Forgotten)
Recently I've been definitely getting into this trend of recreating fairy tales like Maleficent, and due to my recent Netflix addiction, I've binge watched Once Upon a Time.
Again with books, Harry Potter would be definitely in my top 10, along with the Divergent Series, and the Uglies Saga. I like different books that make me think, I have read a lot of very different literature while traveling, everything from Theories on Ancient Civilisations, Classic Novels, Dystopian Civilisations, and even the occasional Romance Novel or two (sometimes its nice for a brain break!)
My music tastes vary greatly as well, I am always looking for new music! Top 40, Country, EDM, Rock, I have favorites in almost every genre out there.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Spending two weeks exploring every inch of Easter Island, including diving and swimming with sea turtles in the crystal clear waters!
Teach, Learn, Share
I would love to hone my Spanish skills so I am actually able to have decent conversations! Also any tips and tricks to backpacking in general like packing or getting better deals, etc. are always welcome in my books!
What I Can Share with Hosts
I hope I would be able to share some helpful tips or at least some recommendations on places I've been as that's the type of thing I love hearing from other travelers.
I'm very organized and creative, so chances are I'll be itching to help out around the house whether it be cleaning, cooking, or whatever needs to be done!
