Hi! I'm Cheryl, and I'm from Toronto, Canada. I'm currently studying medicine in Toronto, which has its exciting moments, but every once in a while I want to escape my bubble and travel to meet new people. I love learning and trying new things, and I'm always excited to hear and share stories!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Just trying to meet people and gain new and fun experiences. Step out of my cozy comfort zone a little bit!

Interests

My favourite things when I'm travelling are trying new foods, trying local drinks, seeing cool art, learning new perspectives, and nerdily learning about the history of wherever I am.

• cats
• arts
• street art
• drinking
• movies
• reading
• stand up comedy

Music, Movies, and Books

I love Quentin Tarantino movies and especially Kill Bill, those movies with the James Franco/Seth Rogen/Jonah Hill crowd, and any rom com that makes me cry (which is most rom coms).
I love David Foster Wallace's essays and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's short stories, but man does it take me a while to get through a whole novel (I'm working on it)!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lean over the edge of Victoria Falls in Zambia. It was really scary.

Teach, Learn, Share

Language-wise, I can try to teach you English or Cantonese, and I'd be so down to keep improving my French, Spanish, and Mandarin!
I can also try to teach you how to make some simple Chinese food, and how to make really derpy faces.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Fun conversations and ideas!
