I'm currently living my dream of travelling the world to experience different cultures, learn new languages, meet new people, and make lasting connections. As a single female Canadian traveller I am always on the hunt for new friends to mingle and be social with. I'm 30 years old and work in construction back home in Canada. I use to live in a camper van with my cat for 3 years and live a minimalist lifestyle. Im very positive, laid back, spontaneous, social, adventurous, humourous, and respectful. I love to learn new things and am constantly on a hunt to find new knowledge. I love the outdoors and seeing new landscapes and beauty 2017: Feb/March: Indonesia March-Mid April: Melbourne, Australia Mid April - May: Thailand End of May: Melbourne, Australia June/July: teaching English in Ubud, Bali August: Cairns, Australia after this who knows where ill be...

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I want to make new friends and love the idea of having someone local tell me about all the hidden gems or show me around their home. I want to know what is important and special for me to see while I am there. I also love bartering or helping anyone in need so this community is perfect for that.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Theres many 😁 - I went to college for photography and was self employed in the photography/film industry in Toronto until i moved to Vancouver in 2011. Ive worked on film sets for commercials and tv shows, and on photography sets for clients such as Starbucks & McDonalds - i lived in a camper van with my cat for 3 years for fun and also to save up to travel . During this time i lived on horse farms, in friends' driveways, on many beaches, ontop of mountains, in the woods, and in the middle of nowhere. -the most amazing thing of all though is deciding to quit my steady high paying cushy construction job and sell everything I own so that I can travel and live out of my backpack which was always a dream
