Hello!!!

I'm new to this site and think it's a terrific option for travelers and people to meet, connect and get engaged!

I am the owner and designer behind The Red Palette a surface design co. Based in Vancouver, BC and built the business from my art which I transform into lucious and out of the box designs.

I am a total art nerd. Lover of all music. I have a strong appreciation for architecture, literature and overall exploring. I adore writing, and am a former design columnist and still creative writer.

I am intending on journeying throughout the USA and Canada in 2016 bringing my art and designs throughoutwhilst seeking new inspiration, meeting new people and making 2016 a stellar year of discovery and experience :)

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Hmmm great question- there's certainly an affordability factor, however, I am solo traveling and a little uncertain of well, everything. I'll be driving and the only company I'll have is my gps and imagination.

It's a great way to meet locals and connect without doing the solo-sit-at-the bar thing....
