About Me

I'm a friendly open minded person that loves traveling. I like to learn new things and am always open to new perspectives, its really special when someone can show you a new way to look at something. I like to listen to peoples stories and tell them my own, share experiences and always laugh!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couch surfing has given me the opportunity to meet the greatest and most kind people from around the world. I would like to offer any advice about the countries I have traveled to and help other travelers along their journey. I'm also always open to traveling with other people.

Interests

My interests are always changing the more I learn. I like to learn a little bit of everything. I enjoy nature and the outdoors, sand boarding, extreme sports, painting, making art, reading poetry and writing. I like to think and talk about the world around us, the beings on them and the universe and beyond.

I can spin and dance with fire! It is called Poi. I can teach you :)

I most enjoy my time when I am surrounded by good people. When I am with good people then I enjoy everything to a coffee, walking around the city, being at the beach, getting lost or doing something random!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most amazing things I got to experience was the close connections I had to the elephants in India and Sri Lanka. The best shower I ever had was from an elephant!

Also riding through the amazon river through Colombia, Brazil and Peru on a 9 day scorching hot boat.

Road tripping through Mexico, Belize and Guatemala!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to cook! I like to learn and also teach cooking as I used to be in culinary school. Also I believe the kitchen is when everyone can come together and do something together :) make something beautiful and delicious.

I can share my poi spinning and my ukulele with anyone who is interested in learning :)

An exotic Canadian accent and possibly a stash of maple syrup.
