Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me, the best part of traveling is meeting locals and hearing about what their lives are like in the city/town/area that I'm traveling through. Although I can't host, I'm always up to share my point of view of living in the Vancouver area!

Interests

I'm always up to try anything at least once. I'm quite a calculated person when it comes to every day living, but when I'm traveling I become a yes-person. I've said spontaneously said yes to: flying to a different country than planned, kayaking in a volcanic lake, hiking two magnificent hikes back-to-back, skinny dipping and jumping off a dock in frigid waters, staying up past my bedtime, etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done a bunch of little amazing things that add up to one amazing life. I've tried skydiving and parasailing; I've hugged a chimpanzee, a crocodile and held a snake that weighed 200 lbs. Lots more amazing things to be done out there!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love hearing of other people's life experiences. Everything is interesting to me.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook delicious meals, but I'm a better baker of cookies and other desserts. I'm full of random stories and interesting information about experiences, people, and places.
