Taking over the world one small step at a time.

Hello all!

My name is Michelle, and I just finished my honours bachelor's of art from the university of Toronto (with a specialization in arts management and a major in art history). I am now doing my post grad in strategic relationship marketing :)

As you can tell from my education, I'm an avid art lover, crafter and DIYer. I enjoy trying new things, going on adventures and meeting new people.

I'm also a major foodie and would eat about anything and everything. For someone who just stands at 5'4, I've been told I have quite an appetite (my husband constantly questions where I put all the food I eat). hehe

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Since I finished I undergrad I decided to take some time off to travel around!

I am choosing courchsurfing because I really like to meet new people! I believe that meeting locals and experiencing the place like a local is the key component to get to know the place you are visiting, and couchsurfing allows me to do just that. Not only will I make connections with new people, but I can learn about why they chose to call that particular city of country their home :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm an easy going person who's always up for adventures and trying new things. So if you're looking for an adventure buddy or just someone to talk to, I'll be there :)

Also, I am very respectful of one's personal space and their homes. As a host (and a homeowner), I know you have poured your heart and soul into making your home perfect, and that is how I plan to leave it. :)
