ABOUT ME

Howdy Do!

I've been on the road for about 6 months, going from Ottawa to British Columbia to California, where I am currently located. I've been WWOOFing for three months and have met numerous interesting and wonderful people doing so! I hope to continue experiences of this kind through couch surfing!

I think I'm a pretty unassuming, easy going individual; a little bit shy, I suppose. I've been a vegan for three years, and I'm also a smoker (I know it's an oxymoron, you don't have to tell me!!!!)
Looking to continue my travels for sometime, meet new people, see things I have yet to see in my young life.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat all life with equal respect and kindness!

Teach, Learn, Share

Throughout my brief travels there is only one thing I have learned that could potentially be helpful:
