About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet new people and see the world

ABOUT ME

Kind, generous, outgoing, curious, funny!

I'm just in the process of moving back to Vancouver, and don't have time to host anyone right now, sorry!

PHILOSOPHY

Embrace all that life has to offer- the good with the bad.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting people, meeting and surfing with good folks in other places.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing is a whole new way to travel! It really lets you get deep inside the culture you're visiting, and get to know people, and their perspectives on life. Also, hosting people is like traveling without leaving home- an opportunity to meet people from other countries and all walks of life.

Interests

Art, architecture and design, music and dance (currently learning tango, also love less serious dance forms ie just generally gettin down), socializing, new languages and culture, film, camping, outdoors, learning new things
