CURRENT MISSION
to enjoy where I am in life and make the most of opportunities that present themselves.

ABOUT ME
I try to be open to new experiences and not let past experiences dictate future ones.
I enjoy meeting new people and sharing good conversation. I enjoy exploring and mini-adventures where I get to 'discover' a place all on my own... this could be through a walk in my city or a backpacking adventure on the other side of the world. There is always the opportunity to discover something new!
I enjoy being outdoors, creative opportunities (mainly in art and the kitchen), animals and learning.

PHILOSOPHY
In the words of Francis Bacon, "it is a sad fate for a man to die too well known to others and not well known to himself".

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Mainly I surf... but I also really enjoy showing off my neck of the woods. I am not in position to host at the moment but happy to give the inside scoop, and if possible meet up for a hike or local adventure!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My best couch surfing experience wasn't an official CS one... I was backpacking in Bolivia and met a family on a bus that invited me and my sister to stay with them to see the 'real' Bolivia. That was wonderful and so fulfilling! There is nothing better than the 'local experience'.

Intereses

Learning skills and ideas, hiking, camping, cooking, geography, reading, photography and various forms of art, meeting new people, board games, seeing new things... we can chat more on this later :)

Música, películas y libros

I mainly listen to jazz, indie, classical... music that kind of lets me space out and becomes the background to whatever I am doing. I know very few band names and am not great for discussing music with :/

Algo increíble que he hecho

I've been fortunate enough to have done and seen a fair bit. My most recent amazing experience was sailing the North West Passage! I am so thankfu for so many wonderful experiences!

Enseña, aprende, comparte
