Always up for conversations over coffee...or whisk(e)y!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Planning to travel a lot more once I get my finances in order. Hosting is a bit difficult at the moment (living with the 'rents), but I'm more than happy to meet up with travelers! Especially if it's at a cafe. Or a cool bar.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walked home from uni (around 30 mins) in -40C weather (with windchill). Thanks Edmonton!

Yeah okay, that doesn't exactly sound amazing now that I've typed it out

Teach, Learn, Share

Basic guitar-ing stuff, writing-ish stuff. Basically anything I know, I'm more than happy to share! Would be great to bounce off ideas and exchange knowledge.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories in a droll monotone. Snobbish media consumption recommendations. Poetry. Commissioned poetry!
