ABOUT ME I am a determined and independent female. I have three fur-babies that take me on all sorts of adventures when we go for our hikes in the bush. I have been running my own pet business in Yellowknife for 8+ years. I am mature, stable, and considerate. My ideals are based on feminism, empowering people, equality for all, and supporting victims. I tend to shy away from crowds but I do enjoy intimate experiences with people who are open and listen with their whole bodies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people while travelling and get to know different ways of life and points of view. I really like hosting to meet new people and provide my dogs with my companionship.

Interests

I like adventures in nature - basically hiking or boating with the intention of observing bird or sea life is my favourite! I've also gone bike touring and I loved the thrill of not knowing where the day would end. I like hunting, gardening, harvesting berries and mushrooms, and fishing for food. A day capped off with nice red wine or craft beer is always nice.

Music, Movies, and Books

I lean towards folk, bluegrass, country inspired music.

My favourite books are historical fiction or fiction based in a more pioneering time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I tried hangliding with an instructor. I have an excrutiating fear of heights but decided to face them. At first I felt like barfing but soon enough I was having the time of my life soaring like a bird on thermals! I would definitely try it again.

Watching a family of Beluga Whales swim in the Churchill River by the mouth to Hudson Bay. We got to listen to them with hydrophones and I have never felt so connected with an aquatic being before.
