About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Don't look back. You're not going that way.

ABOUT ME

I have always tried living my life for the experiences it holds. I am an open minded person and I love trying new things, but there's also something comforting about the familiar. As much as I love traveling, it's always nice to come home too. I love meeting new people and trading stories. have found that most of my most best experiences began with meeting somebody who told me about something they did, and then trying to get a similar experience for myself; not from something I read online or in a book.

I believe that humans are social creatures and we learn both from experiencing things ourselves and by sharing with others.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything comes to you at exactly the right moment. Be Patient.

Listen to your heart... It knows everything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am happy to host (although I live a bit outside of the city) or am more than happy to show other travelers around the city and help them explore local Toronto.

I also love grabbing drinks or coffee with thirsty travelers to trade stories!

Interests

I like staying busy and finding new things to do. I'm up late at night and up early in the morning. I love physical activities like climbing, hiking, running and swimming - but cultural experiences also have their place in my heart.

If it can be done... I probably going to try to find a way to do it.
