Lifelong Vancouver Islander, urban planner, generally a silly goose.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I've been a member since 2013 and have had amazing experiences hosting, surfing, and meeting up with folks from all over the world. I so enjoy meeting folks from all walks of life who share a love of travel.

兴趣

I'm your basic issue West Coast Canadian: I love hiking, sailing, swimming, surfing, camping, playing soccer, and just generally being outside, rain or shine.

I also love reading, cooking, baking, long discussions about this and that, and of course travel, learning about different cultures and their histories. I play piano and am currently trying to teach myself the ukulele, although I don't practice as much as I should. I strongly believe in karaoke at least once a month.

Talk to me about books, movies, music, the environment, travelling, philosophy, food, your hopes and dreams.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I feel like the best is next to come, but growing up on Vancouver Island has been pretty amazing. It's an absolutely stunning place.

Sailed from Nanaimo to San Francisco...it was a wild ride, to say the least.

I also did a semester's exchange in England.

教，学，和分享

If you're passionate about it, I'll probably want to hear about it.

I've been working in affordable housing development and housing policy for 5 years and have lots of thoughts on those issues.

I'm trying to tap more into my creative side and looking to improve my singing and dancing skills

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Good conversation! I love sharing and learning about other cultures, countries, histories, geographies, etc etc.

I can whip up a big batch of vegetarian chili, tofu red curry, or try my hand at cooking your favourite dish.
