I'm a recent grad living and working in Vancouver but I try to get out and travel as much as I can. I enjoy meeting new people and learning about different parts of the world. I also enjoy food (though I'm not a great cook) and grabbing a couple beers or a glass of wine at the end of the day. I am always down for new exciting adventures and exploring new places. Also if you know any good spots for some salsa/bachata I would love to check them out!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To be able to see the world through the eyes of the locals and maybe make some cool friends while I'm at it.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a pretty broad music taste which makes it hard to pick any favorites. Right now though I am really feeling artists like Milky Chance, Solange, Buena Vista Social Club, but the song that is currently stuck in my head is Goodbye Stranger by Supertramp.

I don't often find much time to read and when I do I mostly go for fiction novels. Some of my favourite authors include Paulo Coelho, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Khaled Hosseini, Toni Morrison, and random poetry books I pick up every now and again.

Movies are a little harder cause if I'm watching something it is most likely a Netflix series or Youtube videos.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Knowledge about Kenya for those interested in travelling there or maybe just learning a little bit more.
I'm not a great cook but my omelettes dont suck and I made jam once if that counts for anything.
