CURRENT MISSION Learning, hosting ABOUT ME I love traveling, and I love hosting. I play and listen to music, and ride bikes. I speak English and French, but language is a small barrier to laughter and fun. I am a family man, with two young kids and an amazing wife. PHILOSOPHY Live and let live. Don't do harm. Leave a place better than you found it. Know yourself. Be peaceful. Express yourself. Share. Have courage. Try hard. Relax. Breathe. Trust. Give thanks.

I was born in Norway and moved to Canada with my family as a preteen. Canada is what I consider home (Toronto in specific). Lived in Austin for 9 years then to Chicago for 5 years - and just moved back to Canada! I live to travel, and if I could, I would be working remotely for the rest of my life, hopping from one country to another. Toronto tips and suggested walking path: Transportation I highly recommend buying a Presto card for $5 especially if you will be using public transport to/from airport - you can alternately use your credit card to tap directly as you enter the TTC To/from airport to the city: cheapest/quickest is UP express. Cost is $9/10 one way with Presto Card, otherwise its $12 one way. TTC subway/bus/tram cost $3 per entry Price is valid for 2 hours of travel and includes free transfers between subway to Trams as long as they are affiliated to TTC.

Born in China and moved to Canada for school and work. I traveled extensively when I was in my early 20's. Been to most Asian, Latin American, and European countries and keep exploring. I enjoy and respect people of all races, cultures, and religions. IG@ambroseyuli | I hate the new website btw.

Hello to my Couchsurfing friends ! my name is Adam and I’ve been traveling for sometime now. I would like to think I’m a decent adventurous traveler where I don’t really plan thing and see where the wind takes me I’m super easy going so I’m easy to host and I’m laid back host as well I’m just waiting for my next adventure and hoping to meet fellow like minded travelers on the way :) I feel like I’m very open-minded and outgoing globetrotter. My whole life I was always super fortunate to see the world Meeting amazing people often through Couchsurfing and totally random encounters which i find is the best :) Since I love to travel and to get to know different cultures I am often discovering other countries. Please tell me your dietary restrictions ( vegetarian/vegan) or yourfavorite type of food so I know you read my profile :) I personally eat everything not a picky eater. I consider myself to be a social, respectful, trustworthy and adventurous person. In my free time I enjoy hanging out with my friends, watching movie working out All in all I’m someone who loves life and everything that comes with it. Traveling is my air Born and raised downtown Toronto so if you have any questions about this wonderful city just ask I’m here to help and keep this community going !

CURRENT MISSION In life, there is sorrow and laughter. Either way, it is a blessing! ABOUT ME I love to make people laugh, and have lots of fun. Also, i'm totally open for jam sessions... PHILOSOPHY Live a life worth following.

On CS since 2017, and surfing since ‘18. Moved here to Toronto on Apr’22 as a permanent resident but not sure about the ‘permanent’ thing as of now. Traveller, Foodie and an Ambivert. Been to over 10 countries. Looking for meaningful conversations and a travel companion. Planning to go to the Northern part of Canada this summer. Please feel free to buzz me in case you are planning a trip. I am all into budget travelling, and exchanging tips and tricks.

Hey! I’m currently living in a rural area about 80 km north of Toronto, enjoying a quieter pace of life before heading off on my next adventure to Fiji in October. I’m happiest when I’m outside camping, paddleboarding, or hiking. I also love to cook and have trying to up my cooking game lately. I read a lot, usually about history, psychology, personal growth, or business. I enjoy good conversations, learning how other people see the world, and meeting people with completely different lives and experiences from my own. I’m easy-going, curious, respectful, clean, and pretty independent. Pretty straight-edge as I don't drink, smoke, etc., but I'm a risk-taker in terms of other things in life like business and moving to new countries. I can host in September and early October. One thing to know: there’s no public transportation directly to my place. The nearest train station is about a 20 minute drive away, and depending on timing I may be able to pick you up. But you'd be kind of stranded here, though it's a nice place to be. There's a cat, 5 chickens, and a duck.

PLEASE READ ALL MY PROFILE BEFORE YOU WRITE TO ME PLEASE DON'T CONTACT ME IF YOU ARE A MALE TRAVELLING ALONE OR WITH OTHER MALES. CURRENT MISSION To share my home in a great city and make new friends ABOUT ME I'm a bookish introvert who really enjoys people. I am proud of my city and enjoy helping people to get acquainted with it. PHILOSOPHY Everyone has a story, and I like hearing them.
