Hi folks!

I'm a recent University-grad who is eager to see the world and experience alternative and unorthodox lifestyles. I spent most of my early years in Manila, Philippines and eventually moved to Toronto, Canada in 2007. Now that I have no larger commitments, I figured that it'd be the best time to expand my life experiences through work and travel.

My professional and educational background is on Exercise Performance, Fitness and Outdoor Recreation. I love getting outside to go on hikes, trail-runs, paddling white-water, rock-climbing, mountain and road biking. Really, any outdoor activity that also translates to exercise. I also love being in the gym and helping people reach their performance or fitness goals. However, I make sure that my interest in fitness and exercise does not impede on others who don't share that same interest. Furthermore, I love getting to know new people and sharing stories of our cool experiences, trips, hobbies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm going on an (almost) cross-Canada hitchhiking trip in order to celebrate 10 years of being in this wonderful country. I'm looking forward to meeting enthusiastic and unforgettable people along the way, as well as making new friendships.

I'm on couchsurfing hoping to occasionally find a host in any of the cities/towns along the way. A spare bed/couch/floor/yard wherein I can spend a night would be more enough. I'd love to share stories about my life, my travels, my work, my experiences, and to also hear about everyone else's.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Work with at-risk youth, and help them improve physical literacy and quality of daily life through therapeutic exercise.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Great at small talk! Even better with deep-meaningful conversations. I can be a great listener if you just need somebody to talk to. Or, I can offer my advice/opinions regarding any subject matter.

We can share tips on exercise, health and fitness. Also, talk about outdoor adventures! I can teach you how to engage with groups through summer-camp style games, songs, activities. Or, better yet we can just play them together to see how fun they all are!
