Overview
About Me
Hello!! My name is Mary and I'm a creative, silly, laid back lady. I'm an interior designer which means that I can be both right and left brained, creative and analytical. I loved to explore my environment, try new things and make deep, lasting connections. I try not to take myself too seriously, so you'll usually hear me laughing or making a silly comment about something odd. I love to cook and eat healthy, interesting vegetarian food and try new beers. Overall, I try to make the most out of each experience.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Quite simply, I want to see more of this world and make the most of this one life. I want to see new places, try new things, and make lasting friendships that span the globe.
Interests
I love all things outdoors, including camping, hiking, kayaking and generally exploring what Mother Nature has to offer. I also enjoy my time in the city with friends, trying new restaurants, great beers, checking out museums and other cultural spots.

Music, Movies, and Books
I'm on a huge book kick lately. Some favorites are White Oleander, Into the Wild, Man's Search for Meaning and The Bell Jar. Currently reading: The Gunslinger. Next up: House of Leaves.
I like most types of rock but I generally find my interests somewhere in a chill, indie realm or a progressive rock/ metal area. I need my music to make me feel something deep, and that's all about the atmosphere that the music and vocals create.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Climbing the Grouse Grind in Vancouver. It was a challenging, daunting and exhaustive climb with a personal elevation gain of about 2,800 feet. As much as I wanted to quit during that hike, I challenged myself to do it again one day! Nothing beat the personal satisfaction of surpassing my own limits.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love to help people with their decorating challenges. Whether it be general questions about space planning a room, or how to select color, pattern or texture for a piece of furniture. I enjoy listening and trying to offer up creative suggestions.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I would absolutely love to be a chill, light presence within your home. If I can make you smile or laugh or bring any sense of wellbeing into your life I would be beyond happy.
