Looking to be more involved in the community. I host some events (some free, some not) that could serve as a thing to do for people visiting the city

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The reasons can be divided into two distinct motivations:

1) I love traveling and getting know people from all over the planet

2) I'm an aspiring Comedian/Writer who is looking to go to different cities to perform in and due to a lack of funds I'm unable to pay for my accommodations on those trip

3) I host a monthly comedy show, and would love travellers visiting Ottawa to come check it out. It is called Eat Your Words. It happens once a month, and Travellers and their Hosts can get in for half price!
