I was born and raised in Vancouver BC. I moved to Calgary AB to go to university when I was 20 years old. I graduated with a degree in chemical engineering and a minor in petroleum engineering. I have caught the travel bug and am on a mission to explore the world. I am easy going and prefer the word "yes" rather than the word "no". I am hoping to meet many interesting people along my way and see the world through the eyes of a local. I plan to build my page as I go with all the people I meet. I look forward to meeting you.
