About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Figure out what I wanna do with life...

ABOUT ME

I'm originally from farm near Edmonton and I lived there for 24 years. I did my masters in Biomedical Engineering at McGill and now doing my PhD in mine wastewater treatment at the University of Toronto.
Naturally I'm a pretty introverted person but I love meeting people one on one and getting to know them (I'm shit at big parties).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm always trying to get more involved! If you need a place to stay or a person to hang out with I'll do my best to accommodate.
However, I can only host for a max of 3 days at a time.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's been a while since I've hosted since I've been moving around a bit over the past couple years. But I've met a few people through CS and they've all been great. I'm hoping to meet more!

Interests

Experience new cultures, meeting new people, music, watching television, archery, dancing, and stuff. I have a tendency to try lots of new things so if you can share something that you enjoy I'm sure that I will enjoy it too!

  • dancing
  • board games
  • reading
  • socializing
  • music
  • skiing
  • archery
  • engineering
  • languages
  • gaming

Music, Movies, and Books

Well there are so many... So I'll just list the important ones.
Doctor Who, Sherlock, Supernatural (the big trio!), Star Trek Next Gen,
Time Traveller's Wife, the Kingkiller Chronicles, the Bartimaeus Trilogy, Raven's End, Helix, Harry Potter
Nightwish, Loreena Mckennitt, Sigur Ros, Clint Mansell
Etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I walked across a log stuck in waterfall just to reach the cavern on the other side. Which maybe wasn't the most clever thing...

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a terrible habit of deciding to do projects for which I am ridiculously underqualified. So I know how to make jewlery, knit, sew (sorta), work wood, and integrate functions. All the good stuff one needs to know.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, Japan, Netherlands, Poland, Slovakia, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

Canada
