About Me

Hello, I am a 20 year old female traveling for two months following the Mediterranean coast from Istanbul to Portugal. I just returned from my two month travel of British Colombia, Canada. (Probably the best part of Canada, sorry rest of Canada). Currently traveling in my off season. I work as a forest fire fighting in Haliburton On. and worked in the NWT, B.C. and Alberta during times of emergency.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to extend my travels as long as possibly and meeting locals who can tell or show me the lesser known sights and amazing things their country has to offer. I do not want the tourist vacation but find great insight on the country and it's people.

Interests

I enjoy the outdoors, and am planing to hike in many different countries during my travels, I need to get back into shape and gear up to pass a fitness test to return to work. I also like to go for runs, and leave the trail to explore the wilderness. I love water and swimming. I am interested in rock climbing but am a beginner. Also enjoy, skiing, snowshoeing, and sledding, great winter sports in Canada.
I also enjoying cooking, and more than willing to prepare meals.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am knowledgeable about most nature, plant life, at least that of Canada's forests. I like political and social science conversation and debate.

I am wondering what the temperature will be this winter throughout the Mediterranean, hoping it will be a warmer than average temp. My Travel plans roughly are 4 days in Istanbul, 20 in Greece, 9 in Spain, 3 in Portugal, 7 in Morocco, and 16 in Tenerife. Any suggestions of things to do, or general tips are welcome.
