About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To explore the world's cultures and languages by total immersion, with all my worldly possessions in one bag on my back.

ABOUT ME

I'm studying veterinary medicine right now, and I've always been involved in organic farming and local food. My passions include gardening, cooking, brewing beer and wine, travelling, learning languages, and exploring other cultures and food customs.
I love sharing food and drink with my guests, taking them to my favourite pubs and restaurants in town, and generally having a great time. Games around the coffee table and back yard fires are also favourite activities to share with guests.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted couch surfers in my home in Sutherland, Saskatoon(usually through my roommate's host account), and I couchsurfed with my sister while we traveled South America.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

As a host, I love getting to know people from all over the world, sharing food and local or homemade beers and wines, and giving them a taste of Saskatchewan life.
As a surfer, I love learning about local customs and culture, especially unique drinks, meals, games, slang, music, etc.
