About Me

September-October 2016: Currently travelling around Portugal, Spain and France. I have attended couchsurfing meetups in Spain and am looking forward to hosting when I get back to Vancouver at the end of October!

I have lived in various parts of the world for work and school, and really like making friends from different parts of the world.

My philosophy - Think higher. Feel deeper. Never criticize. Always encourage.

Hablo un poco español.. most recently spent time in Tarifa, Spain, learning Spanish.
