My goal is to live with an open mind, laughter and passion for people and the environment.
I live in a small community in Canada where I work in Aboriginal relations and am studying to become a forester. I spend my spare time in nature, going to markets and festivals, with our local church, and in my garden. I love food and want to start growing more of my own.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have couchsurfed before while travelling and later living in Europe for school. This year, my boyfriend Gabriel and I are back for a month for my sister's wedding in France and then to wander around a bit. We don't have a set plan after the wedding and are looking forward to new adventures and meeting new people!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My travels in rural SE Asia and China. Now re-discovering my own home with a travellers lens: its diversity, history, people and culture.

Teach, Learn, Share

This trip I am hoping to learn some more about growing food and living off the land and living in community.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can tell you about my country, our local circumstances in rural Canada, something about forestry, sustainability, food, and travel. I'm happy to speak with people who are learning English and to offer my help to you.
