CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I am a passionate person and open-minded about almost everything I do in life. I am currently a PhD student in mechanical engineering, focused on renewable energy. I am constantly looking for new experiences outside of work life as well. I love cooking, am vegetarian, I cycle everywhere I can, and am in love with the great outdoors (it's difficult not to be, when you're from Canada).

PHILOSOPHY

Learn everything about something and something about everything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Most of my experiences with CS are in Germany, since that's when i started using it. I've hosted many a surfer in Moncton as well and hope that my guests enjoyed their stay as much as I enjoyed conversing with them :). I have even met some new friends with whom I still communicate ! It is a wonderful website and has a lot of potential for bringing people together.

Cycled 1500 km from Braunschweig (Germany) to Oslo (Norway) with an old used tent, a crappy 70 euro bike, and my broken swedish. It was tons of amazing.

Also, I raced a cow in front of 5000 people in the rice fields of Harau Valley in Indonesia.
