Hi there :) my name is Karen. I'm living in Guelph, looking to meet awesome people from all over the globe!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mainly as a means of accommodation when I travel. I travel to Toronto frequently for concerts, but eventually I'm looking to visit Colorado, Germany, New Zealand, and the UK.

I'm interested in hosting.. However my apartment is a bachelor suite. If that works for you then that's awesome!
