I like to make things and chat with interesting people. I'm a Canadian living in Prague for the last year and a half and I'm soaking up central europe's location to try and travel as much as I can. Life is an adventure :)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I know the joy of showing people around my city and taking them to my favorite places and would love to meet someone willing to do the same :)

Intereses

Camping, art, getting lost, getting found again, napping, dancing at outdoor summer concerts, talking to strangers, shooting things (nonliving) with my slingshot.

• literature
• art history
• urban sketching

Música, películas y libros

I like Balkan music, varieties of electronic, bluegrass, 70's rocks and anything with an accordion (clarinet is a bonus!) Guilty love of Mika. He's awesome!
Film. Black comedies (think cohen brothers), documentaries, mockumentaries, and Charlie Chaplin films. Breakfast at Tiffany's is also a favorite. Not a fan of horror, this overactive imagination just can't handle it. I love the muppets! and this Canadian sketch comedy from the 90's called "kids in the hall". Great stuff!
Books. I love Ray Bradbury, Kurt Vonnegut and Jeanette Winterson.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I made a giant wire sculpture ant with a group of tiny children.
Currently in the planning stages to open a forest/art school back in Canada! Set to open in September :)

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I'm an art history grad and I love talking about the history of a culture based on the art that they create at different time periods. I love learning a bit about the history of the places that I visit.
Big fan of urban sketching and I always carry a sketchbook (or 2 or 3) and a stash of pens, markers and paint! I'm an art/English teacher and would love to learn/offer some drawing tips and tricks! Share ideas over a pint?
