I enjoy candlelit dinners and long romantic walks to the fridge... Haha but honestly I'm adventure-seeking, social, passion for all things travel! I'm open-minded, and love meeting new people!

I have a special place in my heart for special needs individuals. I believe my brother who is autistic has really influenced me in becoming the person I am today which is why I'm so accepting and understanding of others. Personality wise I like to talk and listen and I do ask a lot of questions haha.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to include first my favourite part about CS is the conversation. The story sharing I love to hear peoples experiences, the good, the bad it's such a beautiful thing.

A Good friend of mine, Janna. Introduced me to couch surfing and I fell in love with the concept of it.

I've had some really weird people message me on here with very weird intentions/reqests it's sad that people dont fully understand the concept of couch surfing.

I want to learn,explore, experience a new culture and make new friends. I want to meet new people along the way aswell and learn from them too. I also would love to help show any CS around my beautiful hometown Vancouver, B.C.

The ways I can give back to my hosts is washing the dishes, preparing a meal, Taking you out for dinner, sharing my stories, my time, giving gifts .. I'm all ears :)

PLEASE TELL ME WHY YOU WOULD LIKE ME TO HOST YOU.

Please send me a request in advance so that I can try and have my day off when you are in town :) Let me know what your plans are and where you would like to go. Vancouver is pretty safe for the most part :)

Interests

Cultural exchange, friendship, helping less fortunate, volunteer, I love to cook, bake, go to movies, try new restaurants and cuisines, listen to music (especially latin music), dancing, swimming, badminton, read about nutriton and holisitic health. I love the water.. the beach, sunsets, walks on the beach :)

I want to travel the entire world that's my goal and I learn better by being present and living like a local. I've gained this new confidence that I can start travelling solo right before I booked my first solo trip to Brazil. I also firmly believe that travelling is the best way to learn! I learned so much just from my first solo trip and I love gaining new knowledge.
