Hi! I'm Tom :)

I work and live in Toronto, and have an extra bedroom in my condo which I am happy to share with travellers from both near and far.

I recently graduated from university, and have been working in Downtown Toronto ever since. Before starting work, I travelled the world for 4 months and visited many different places, which is how I heard about couchsurfing in the first place.

Fun facts about me: I am certified in scuba diving, and used to teach piano in high school.

My last trip: India
My next trip: TBD

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

NOTE TO POTENTIAL COUCHSURFERS:
Please note I will not accept your request if:
- Your profile is not filled out, and you don't have any photos
- You are not writing a personal request

I would rather accept interesting profiles of great individuals with a creative, funny and thoughtful request.

The best part about travelling is meeting new people and hearing their stories. Having been a Couchsurfing guest before, I know how awesome it can be to meet new people on a deeper level. I'd love to learn more about you and your experiences on travelling, career, life, etc.

Interests

Cars and planes are my main interests. I love studying the designs of these fine machines, and learning about how airlines operate. My dream job is to become the CEO of an airline.

Aside from that, I also love to debate about world issues and politics. I participated in many Model UN and NATO conferences in the past, including my most recent Model UN at Harvard.
