I'm a book-reading, coffee-loving, beer-drinking lady from Canada. I love art, history, food and dogs. My hobbies include silent reading, knitting, making jewellery and lazing around. I was a nanny for a very long time, and now work for a very lively commerce company. I grew up in Ottawa, and studied cultural development at university. I have traveled to Guatemala to teach English through art, and spent a summer camping in western Europe supervising a group of high school students. I lived in New Zealand for awhile and would love to go back! I used to work on a goat farm, and love bread products very much.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm pretty much obsessed with traveling, and prefer to do it in the company of locals or established residents. I'm always looking for recommendations and ideas of where to go, what to do, what to eat, and what I can't miss.

Music, Movies, and Books

Lord of the Flies is my favourite book, but I'll read just about anything!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a great cook, and would happily make meal after meal. I'm also pretty well traveled and well read, so the conversation would be interesting! There's also a good chance I could knit you something warm.
