About Me

I am a Canadienne on the road, doing a four month trip across Europe! I like to think that I'm friendly and funny, and I love learning about the different ways people do things. My number one thing to do in a new city is eat something local and find a good bakery for dessert!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Save money (évidemment) and meet wonderful people willing to share their culture and home! I want to add as many words to my slang dictionary as possible.

Interests

I'm an avid rock climber, although I know I won't be doing a lot while I travel. At least I have other things to keep me busy! I love exploring and getting lost in a new city, and trying to learn new languages (which I am terrible at). The best way to start a morning is with a cup of coffee and a view!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite things to read are travel or medical non-fiction, including What the Psychic told the Pilgrim, My Brain on Fire, Musicophilia, and Every Patient Tells a Story. I really need to read both Alex Honnold's and Tommy Caldwell's books!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We were climbing outside of Vegas this year and it snowed! When we got back to camp my tent was covered - wild for the desert! Strangest thing I've seen in a while.

Teach, Learn, Share

While I speak kind of sort of fluent French and Polish, I do have a minor in linguistics and I'm very passionate about phonetics and other language related trivia.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A sense of humour and adventure, and my cooking skills 🍳
