Overview
About Me
Hey there!
I'm 21 years old, and entering my fourth year at the University of Toronto, where I study commerce and other things. This summer I am travelling to Europe for my first time, all alone!
Some of the things I am most passionate about: Pop-Culture Critique, Music , Dancing, Film/TV , Philosophy of Mind, Ethics, Scientific Literacy, and the Future of Humanity.
I tend to spend my extra time watching my favorite shows (the list always changes), reading, and frequenting proper dance music clubs.
I am very open minded and love nothing more then diving into conversations and seeing where they go. I'm pretty low-key, polite, and don't like to make a scene :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Couch surfing allows one to meet a nice local, and to really be immersed in the home city's culture - something that hostels can sometimes lack. I want to learn from people who are knowledgeable about their culture. Plus, what a better way to meet friends!

Music, Movies, and Books
Ahh so hard!
Music: The Beatles, Hip Hop from the 90's until Now, Blues, Ethereal and Ethnic House , Down-tempo, Alternative Rock - my musical interests are pretty eclectic (as long as it's good lol)
Movies: Anything directed by Denis Villeneuve, Christopher Nolan, Alejandro Inarritu, Cohen Brothers, Tarantino, or anything Visually Creative / Pulpy or thought provoking and beautiful
Books: I'm a huge sucker for old science fiction (50s-70s) and can list you loads of my favorite authors :) Also a big fan of existentialist literature, science based non-fictions, and philosophy
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I read the whole game of thrones series in one summer
Teach, Learn, Share
Appreciate beauty when you see it, and double down on what you enjoy doing! Besides food and shelter, the people you engage with affects you the most throughout your life, so make sure to be around people that bring out the best in you!
