About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Planning a potential volunteer trip to Africa

ABOUT ME

I love to try new things and have a hard time saying no to an adventure!

I am from Ottawa, have lived in Toronto for the last couple years, and have recently moved out west to Calgary.

Eventually I want to move out to Australia or New Zealand and explore that side of the globe while travel nursing. I would also love to do some nursing volunteer trips to Africa and Central America someday.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I had a great time being hosted for a night in Vancouver, everyone was very social and welcoming and it was a great time! That first experience made me very excited for more couch surfing in the future.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Running of the Bulls, Pamplona, Spain; terrifyingly amazing, cannot say I would go back but I'm glad I went. Definition of jaw dropping.

Sailing around Croatian islands for a bit over a week

Attending Tomorrowland and meeting wonderful people from so many countries I did not even know existed! (more countries attended than the Olympics)

Eating in Italy and Greece. Enough said.

Backpacking in South America- absolutely everything we did and saw was amazing! From Machu Picchu to the desert to the jungle.

Teach, Learn, Share

Budapest- super underrated and you definitely should go when in Europe!

Ecuador- went to South America more excited for Peru but Ecuador stole my heart.

Countries I’ve Visited

Belgium, Canada, Croatia, Cuba, Ecuador, El Salvador, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Peru, Portugal, Spain, United States
