About Me

I'm 23, born in Northern Canada, raised in Ottawa. I'm an introvert but I loosen up pretty quickly. I'm half hippie half nerd. I love new experiences, whether they're from reading or in real life. I traveled Europe with my family as a teenager and I've been to the northern parts of the States. More recently, I travelled in Costa Rica for 2 weeks and hiked the Inca Trail in Peru.

I love nature, which is why I decided to earn an Undergraduate Degree in Forestry and also why I decided not to pursue a career in Forestry.

My dream is to write books that can reconnect people with nature and reiterate the importance of protecting it. I'm currently on a roadtrip from ottawa to Vancouver and I'm looking for places to crash so i can spend more money on renting mountain bikes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
