Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Living in Canada on a two year working visa, so trying to cover as much ground as possible during my time here.. I'd love to see as much of here and the US while living here, while obviously on a budget..

I also love the idea of living like a local while travelling, so hotels near tourist attractions are the last thing I'm looking for while travelling, I'd much rather meet cool locals along the way to show me their favourite parts of where they make home.

Music, Movies, and Books

According to Spotify, my top genres range from Indieteonica to New Rave to Modern Rock (?)
I tend to default to either Glass Animals, Foals, Foster the People or M83.

Movies-wise, I'm definitely more into movies as background noise. Movies covering real life themes are far more likely to catch my attention than anything sci-fi or fantasy, but my interests have surprised me before and are sure to do so again.

When reading, I can go for anything from horror to something that makes me feel like I'm still learning. Sit me across from Naomi Klein for an hour and I'm happy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spontaneously road tripped from Vancouver to San Fran in August 2017. What started out as a hike ended up with 10 days sleeping in the car and on beaches, brushing teeth in McDonald's bathrooms and dressing myself from thrift stores along the way. Definitely a memorable way to spend a week of unemployment!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm at my happiest in the kitchen, always willing to cook someone a decent meal.
