Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just moved to Winnipeg full time after living here for the summer

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't had many couch surfing experiences with strangers, the only time that comes to mind for me was when I was in a serious car accident on the way to Montreal in which I suffered a concussion. We ended up staying with an acquaintance we met at a book fair in Toronto and he and his roommates were absolutely lovely and kind!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Too much to fit here. The most recent one was seeing the Northern Lights for the first time! It's something I've always wanted to witness in person and now I can check it off my list!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love cooking but hate cooking for just myself. Want to learn some awesome vegan cooking/baking tricks? I love to share!
We all have lived knowledge and experiences to share. It's hard for me to identify my skills as separate from my personality.
I have a lot of things I want to learn how to do, like make my own clothes, learn the science behind baking and learn an instrument, to name a few.
