CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Hi friends, I live on a small homestead/hobby farm an hour south of Ottawa with my husband, dog, and various farm critters.

For the past ten years I've worked as actor, historical interpreter and ox trainer at Upper Canada Village, a lovely 19th century village and my husband and I perform folk music as a duo in our spare time. I love being outdoors and meeting new people. I'm very friendly and outgoing and like to try new things!

PHILOSOPHY

My goal is to try everything at least once! And never let an opportunity pass me by.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted surfers at my homes in Ottawa, Kingston, and Lunenburg, NS. I've made great use of a similar site for cyclists during my USA cycling Tour. In 2012 I studied abroad at Nottingham University for a semester and I traveled around Europe afterwards, using couch surfing a few times and again in a tour through the USA!

Ive hosted and surfed several times and have met some wonderful folks in Canada, Italy, Germany, England, USA,etc. It has shown me that there are so many genuinely nice, generous people out there who have so much to share and teach!!
