Currently I study in Strasbourg, but I'm from Vancouver, Canada. My two favourite things: traveling and nature :)

I study literature and political science, and I consider myself a foodie (not to brag, but I am an excellent cook. Case in point: my bf gained 10 kg since we started dating ;) My favourite way to get to know someone is by sharing a delicious meal and perhaps a bottle of wine. If you host me, I promise to cook something tasty for you :D

My experience with couchsurfing:

In summer of 2014, I did an exchange in Prague at Charles University to study art, architecture, politics and history. After that I travelled for a month in the Czech Republic, Germany, Austria, Italy, Belgium and Luxembourg. Most of the time, I stayed with couch hosts and I loved it!

In summer of 2015, I moved into my own house, so I was able to host for the first time. I hosted around ten people, and it was a great experience :)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Initially, the fact that I am a broke student was the reason why I joined couchsurfing, until I learned about how amazing this community is! I've met some truly formidable hosts and guests, and I was deeply moved by the positive impact they had on my travelling and life experience. Couchsurfing is far more rewarding than staying at a hotel or hostel, so I like to contribute by surfing/hosting whenever I can.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I once saved the life of a super drunk person when they were aspirating on their own vomit. Oh that's another reason why you should host me: I have level one first aid. So if you have a minor cut I can totally save you from bleeding to death.

教，学，和分享

I like to surf, and I like to host. The beautiful thing about couch surfing is the continuous exchange of generosity and especially knowledge. I'm happy to teach my languages and learn some of yours. I can show you around my city, or at least give suggestions, and I appreciate when hosts help me feel welcome.
