Update 2022: Here's a page that has been fairly static for 13 years... and in internet years that's a lifetime. Lots has changed on CS since then, but for the most part I'm the same person. Simply more adventures, more life lessons, and maybe some more maturity. It seems sad to change the profile that sent me around the world twice, so going to leave most of it as is. The first half of my CS experiences was heavily weighted towards surfing, and recently, it has been lots more hosting. (3x vax) Insta: @sinan_leylek CURRENT MISSION Encourage spontaneous decision making ABOUT ME Ever since I can remember I've been wanting to travel. I have a crazy addiction for adventure and to push myself when I'm motivated to do something. I love to go hiking and spend time outdoors but also enjoy once in awhile a night in watching a movie or playing some video games with my friends. I'm always up to try new activities/sports and have been trying to put myself out of my element so I can discover new experiences in life. I'm an open minded guy and would love to see where your coming from. I always seem to have a smile on my face and I'm sure you'll find I'm fun to be around and will enjoy your time with me! After a 7 month trip traveling around the world in 2009/10 I went back home to study business, marketing, and entrepreneurship. It was a worthwhile experience, but nothing beats the randomness and enjoyment of traveling with CouchSurfing. I've done some work in the film industry as well as at an ice cream factory and a program to promote buying local food. I own a lighting & effects rental business that I launched at the end of my last 8 month trip in 2015. I love putting on a new pair of socks, storms, all four seasons, popcorn, ruffing it, and waking up and having no idea what country I'll sleep in that night. Fun fact: I rarely sleep with a pillow! I'm also a vegetarian but don't mind eating around others who aren't. Here is a PDF link to a book I wrote from my trip around the world: https://www.dropbox.com/s/u1t5l6b7a9s4oz6/WorldTour2010eBook.pdf PHILOSOPHY Never settle for anything less then what makes you happy. Get out there and see what the world has to offer.

Hi all, My amazing Stella and I are longtime CS members and happy to be a part of the CS community. We are adventurous explorers. We visited lots of countries and we understand the difficulties in finding proper accommodation. *** That said, we will not be able to host anytime soon due to personal reasons. ***
Ask me anything! My favourite thing to do is learn about people, what they are passionate about and especially about their travels. I am new to Couchsurfing as I have just started travelling solo but am excited to connect with folks from around the world! My daily mantra is โAlways stay humble and kindโ Back home I used to work in for a travel centre so I am always able to offer advice about travelling to Manitoba( as well as Canada) so please, do not hesitate to reach out about ANYTHING. In my downtime I volunteer with a variety of organizations from neighbourhood renewal efforts to tech events(I co-founded a volunteer based events non-profit) to festivals/local concerts/theatre, etc. I love small timey musicians(please send me your music if youโre an artist!). My openness is unmatched but I live life with a Buddhist type of spirituality and a Kantian philosophy, although love learning about how lived experiences and trauma have shaped the world(Iโm a social psych major). I also hate working out so to get active I like to play sports, almost all types and kinds; volleyball, hockey, slo pitch baseball, sponge hockey, ultimate frisbee and soccer are those that I have played this past year. I also love yoga and going for runs. Museums and art galleries have a lovely little spot in my heart. Scenic hikes or laying on the beach are the best ways to watch a sunrise or sunset. Most importantly, I love a good drink and some food with great conversation. P.S. On our license plates it says, โFriendly Manitobaโ and I take pride in personifying that fact. :)

Rearranging schedules. Walk in a host's hiking boots...
CURRENT MISSION Make life a succession of memorable experiences! ABOUT ME Working at a Nature Interpretive Center at Oak Hammock Marsh and loving it. We meet so many interesting people and have a chance to spend lots of time outdoors. Also enjoy traveling, exploring new places and make new friends along the way. PHILOSOPHY I figure I should live my life to the fullest now instead of postponing things to the future. It makes for a great exciting life! I'm very much a happy-go-lucky type of person. Not only is the glass half-full but that means there's room to add more.
CURRENT MISSION To pick up every hitchhiker I see! ABOUT ME I wish I was more disciplined cause there are so many things I want to do in life. Make my own movie/documentary, Become a teacher, work more as an actor/stunt performer, Start my own travel company, write a play. The number one thing that makes me cry when watching a movie is when someone fights to achieve their goal and they do! PHILOSOPHY You gotta fight! For your right! To paaaaarty! -Beastie Boys
I love to travel and meet new people (as pretty much any CS would say)! Always down for outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, or kayaking in the summer. I enjoy meeting with friends for a drink or activity and am always up to sightsee or try something new โ whether traveling or at home. While my idea of traveling includes learning about the culture and history of the place I'm visiting, I am on CS to experience the perspective of locals and understand why they are proud to call their town/city/country home. I love to continue finding new places to explore and have had some wonderful experiences in the most unexpected places. I am a lawyer in Canada and have worked a variety of other jobs before starting out in my current job, including with an education-focused not-for-profit in my hometown. Travel and meeting new people has always been important to me โ my first real job in high school was working as a city tour guide!
Energetic, sociable, enthusiastic person constantly peeking around the corner to a new adventure! I recently moved to Montreal from Vancouver on a whim to better my French :) Now back in Winnipeg!
Sometimes here, sometimes there! I like humans, plants, animals, reading, fires, growing food, exploring, mushrooming, sharing good food - life. I'm easygoing and chill but love to have fun. I like to laugh, too. Life is beautiful and I'm thankful to share it with beautiful strangers (who often turn into beautiful friends). Usually down to clown.
I am an open-minded and friendly person. Now I will travel a little less - and it's time to be a host. The goal to which I am going is to visit all countries of the world. I do not limit myself in time for this. In the near future I plan to discover all the countries of Europe, after which the whole world. I have big ambitions. I want to remove all the boundaries for the development of my own, and the people that I meet on my way. My motto: "Any experience is useful." If I didn't reply - just ask yourself:Did I read profile information? If your answer YES - check me on Instagram @jen4.sh
CURRENT MISSION Live until I die. I want to see as much as the world as l can and experience all that I can. I want to give back as much as I have been given. ABOUT ME I am a friendly out going person. I am a nurse and enjoy working with the elderly. I have 2 adult daughters and a grandson. I love to meet new people from different countries and backgrounds. I enjoy discussing many things, art, movies, politics and spirituality. I enjoy learning from others and hearing of their experiences in this life. I practice nursing and also have my masters level in Reiki, an energy healing technique. I am interested in shamanism and paganism. PHILOSOPHY I am an open person . I believe we are put here to learn, and give to others, help each other thru this journey called life.
