My name is Nina, I am 20 years old and I currently live in Montreal, Canada.
I am passionate about traveling, discovering new places, cultures and people. I believe traveling allows you to discover hidden jewels within yourself, facing your own challenges and insecurities, growing up and finding your true self. I have been lucky to visit many countries around the world, and I am always ready to pack my bag and discover a new place! Other than traveling, I love practicing yoga, cooking and writing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that the experience of traveling can be immensely enhanced when it enables you to meet local people and to discover a place through their living experience. I believe that sharing is what makes life so precious, whether it's sharing stories, advices, a good meal, or a good laugh! Couchsurfing is a wonderful invention in that it makes traveling cheap and convenient, while giving the extraordinary opportunity to meet amazing people along the way!
