CURRENT MISSION

Finding a reason to live in unfamiliar territory.

ABOUT ME

I try to live responsibly and be aware of my footprint on the earth.

I'm a low-key person and a decision maker in group situations. I grew up in Vancouver and learned to love it even more while I was travelling, and when I return, I'll have some more travelling to do in my hometown. I'm very open-minded, enjoy challenging myself, believe in karma, and always knock on wood. I surprise myself a lot.

I'm a night person, but I love mornings. 2am is too early for bed. I missed my dog the most while travelling.

PHILOSOPHY

Life must be difficult, otherwise we'd have no appreciation for it.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've yet to couchsurf myself, but I can't wait to host people!

兴趣

I really enjoy concerts/gigs, and I try to go once a week, even amidst deadlines and masses of schoolwork. Vancouver has a pretty great selection, albeit a bit expensive. Definitely a fan of Canadian music, especially the Montreal scene. If you're ever in my area looking for a concert buddy, let me know!

Things I enjoy: trying exotic foods, watching documentaries, shopping at Value Village, watching dogs play, following ducks, burning candles, coffee and tea, mornings, looking at the sky
