About Me

A 30 year old adventurer who loves new experiences, the outdoors and learning about different cultures. I grew up in Ottawa Canada and after finishing my bachelor degree in International Business I set off to travel the world on what was supposed to be a 6 month trip that turned into 3 years. Came back to Vancouver to work for 3 years as a financial services manager and realized the regular 9-5 was definitely not the life for me. Since then I’ve been travelling again for 3 years and have just completed 2 years touring Europe on motorcycle. I just arrived into Colombia to wait out the pandemic and looking to explore the area!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting locals to really get a sense of a place I’m visiting. I think that Couchsurfing is a great way to make the world feel a little bit smaller by connecting with unlikely people by sharing stories and having some laughs.

Interests

Above all I like learning and trying new things, being active and outdoors, love some good food and drinks and sharing good times with good people!
