CURRENT MISSION

To not die on my first couch surfing adventure

ABOUT ME

Food, friends and random fun facts are a few of my favourite things (I suppose raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens are alright too). Gin and tonic is my go to drink, but I love a good scotch (when I can afford it), and Innis and Gunn also has a place in my heart. (I swear I'm not a booze-aholic...)
Currently am learning the ukulele (everything sounds so much more chill on the uke) and improve my golf game (such a frustrating, ridiculous money-guzzling game...and yet I can't stay away).
I think bow ties are awesome and need to find their way back into fashion. I have a penchant for fire, fireplaces, fire pits and camp fires. I enjoy camping and hiking equally as much as fine dining and schmoozy cocktail parties. I recently decided our family van didn't have enough mileage so I drove it across Canada with some friends. Throwing myself down the side of a mountain/skiing both terrifies and exhilarates me. Is anyone still reading this? Shoot me a message and let's chat!

PHILOSOPHY

"Do not forget small kindnesses and do not remember small faults"

I try not to take myself too seriously, but sometimes I seem OCD

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I will never forget crawling out of a tent on a beach in Hawaii at sunrise.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach/Share - Cooking/food, things about immunology and microbiology
Learn - Who wants to teach me German or Italian? Also, who wants to help expand my music tastes?

FYI when I say I speak beginner Polish, I mean I know a few words. But feel free to help me improve!
