I enjoy art in all forms, the great outdoors and strangers that smile.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have always wanted to travel, I live in northern Ontario Canada and haven't been outside of my city very much. I always feel energized when I meet new people that I can connect with. I'm not a wealthy person but my heart longs for adventure :-/ I figured couchsurfing and hosting would be an excellent, more affordable way to meet people, hear their stories, learn about their culture and offer others that opportunity as well :-D I want to live a life filled with meaningful, educational and worthwhile experiences aquired through meeting unique and caring people.

I watched my cousin give birth and I've gone skydiving.

Teach, Learn, Share

My goal is to be inspired and live a life that inspires others.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a respectful, clean, fairly low maintenance woman that likes to listen, learn and explore. If you play an instrument I am willing to sing, if you want to dance I am willing to join in and if you want to sit in silence and just meditate you won't even know I'm there ;-)
