I am a Canadian who grew up near the mountains craving all kinds of outdoor adventure! Life is short and I'm a firm believer in listening to your heart and doing what fulfills you.

What makes me full is growing food, farming, family, music, campfires, mountain views, mama nature and good vibes.

I love travelling and I love plants!
I travel to see new cultures and see as much natural beauty as possible. Staying with locals has always been the most enriching experience, I love to get a glimpse into the lives of many people - we all have something beautiful to share.

When I am not travelling in my off-season, I work in ecological restoration. I work with natural landscapes to bring life back into areas that have been damaged by floods, fires or resource extraction. I love my job and love to learn about ecology!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
