About Me

Hey! So a little a bit about me... I'm a Canadian who works in the sports event industry, usually for large sports events (i.e. Toronto 2015 Pan Am / Parapan Am Games & Euro 2016 Football Championships).

I just finished living in France for 3 months working, and now I'm looking for a bit of travel and adventure. Always up for new experiences and my outgoing/easygoing personality makes it easy for me to make friends anywhere.

I'm passionate about travelling and meeting new people from across the world. I love to go out with friends, grab a drink, some food, and always the life of the party.

Normally, I live in Toronto so if you're ever in Toronto you're always welcome to visit also!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing seems like the best way to meet new people when travelling alone... an opportunity to discover a city and/or a country through a person who actually lives there. Many people have told me that it's a chance to create new friendships instead of staying in your everyday BnB.

Now that the Euro is finished, I'm in Europe for a month and a half with no plans. Looking to do some exploring all over Europe and make some long lasting friendships in different countries.

Interests

The world and it's wonders, meeting/getting to know people from different cultures, absolutely love to be active/athletic which is linked to my love for sports, going out with friends and having a good time. Obsessed with food and how it changes with different cultures, especially when paired with a bottle of wine. Love to watch films of all sorts, it's fun living through the perspective of a different character whether it be in a fictional story or reliving non-fictional history.

I really want to learn how to speak most of the Latin based languages such as Portuguese, Spanish and Italian...

Music, Movies, and Books

All types of music; rock, rap, pop, hip hop, country, dance, bachata, reggaeton, edm, etc.

Movies; so many good films out there, we would have to talk about this in person.

Currently reading 1984 by George Orwell.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

As mentioned above, I work in major sporting events. One of the most amazing things I've done was move to France and have been living in France for the past 3 months. It's amazing to see the culture from the inside, with locals who know things about the area that tourists could never know.

Teach, Learn, Share

I recently finished my studies in both Sciences and Sports. Looking to continue working in the sports event industry with large scale sports events like the olympics, etc.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my vibrant personality and presence with whomever I stay with. I'm fun to be around and love to meet new people whenever possible. Also, I'm a clean and responsible adult who understands the meaning of keeping a home proper and presentable. I am always respectful to anyone I meet, especially if you're willing to graciously take me into your home.
