CURRENT MISSION

To get lost, see the world and meet amazing people :)

ABOUT ME

Where to start....

I am open-minded and love hearing other people's opinions and ideas. I enjoy the simple things in life, like having coffee with friends and bike riding, but I also love adventure. I consider myself a part-time free spirit.

I like to party, but not every night. Sometimes an early night to bed is bliss. I like a mix of city and nature. I'm a dog owner and lover.

I just returned from a remarkable trip around the world - with stops in Europe, South America and South East Asia.

Right now, I'm just looking to hangout with people in Toronto and talk about travel. I love being inspired by other people's adventures.

I also write a super awesome travel blog :) Check it out: http://www.melissatoandfro.wordpress.com

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
