I'm a Cell Biology student doing my Masters in Frankfurt. I moved after completing my Bachelors in Canada because I wanted a change of scenery and the opportunity to travel around Europe. For me the best part of travelling is having new experiences and making friends during my travels.

My interests are varied with my deepest passion being for music. I used to be in a band and we'd play covers of all sorts of songs, sometimes I'd try and write some. When it comes to listening to music, it's a bit of a cop-out but I listen to many genres except EDM and classical. I also enjoy sports, playing (ice) hockey and motorsports; I'm a huge fan of the Calgary Flames, Liverpool, and unfortunately, McLaren. In the summer you can find me hiking up mountains but in winter I much prefer sliding down them. 🏂

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on CS to meet new people, doing touristy stuff is all well and good but nobody knows how to have a great time somewhere like the people who live there!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've volunteered on a crisis line since I was a teenager.

Drove a Trabi around eastern Germany.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like learning about the history of where I'm visiting, the people I'm with, and how they live.

I'm a native English speaker learning German so if you're the opposite, maybe we could tandem!

Besides my jovial personality I also have a veritable armada of fun facts about Frankfurt and the surrounding area with which to enthral you with.
