CURRENT MISSION
Feeding my curiosity, chasing interesting stories
ABOUT ME
I'm a wannabe journalist, currently doing internships and training in journalism at Concordia University in Montreal.
In the past, I've tried a number of different things: farming, office work, touring with a band, odd jobs, teaching music, and academic research.
I thrive on trying and learning new stuff. I'm very curious and so I love meeting new people, and listening to their stories.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
When I lived in Halifax last year, I shared a big house with some roommates. We used to host couch surfers on a regular basis. We also hosted and attended gatherings with other local CouchSurfing members.
