ABOUT ME

What can I say...I'm a Canadian, recently moved to Paris on a bit of a whim, and currently so happy with life! I love travelling and living outside of my comfort zone (don't always love that of course, but know it's good for us human beings). I used CS for the first time on one of my first solo backpacking trips in Indonesia and met some of the most wonderful people who I still keep in touch with and see form time to time.

PHILOSOPHY

Always trust your gut

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This one time my best friend and I were in NYC for less than 2 days and we were trying to get into a free Andrea Bocelli concert in Central Park with a ton of special guests. Tickets sold out in a matter of second obviously, and it happened to be raining that evening. We filled up some Starbucks cups with rose and decided we'd give it a shot, go to the park and see what magic we can create. While waiting in line to get in (with no tickets in hand I may add) I overheard a couple passing us by, walking in the opposite direction as us on their way out, saying that they were too cold and were going to enjoy the rest of the show on TV from the comfort of their couch. I stopped them to have a chat and see if maybe we can use their tickets. Long story short, we got their VIP passes (!!!) and ended up almost front row in Central Park, with thousands and thousands of people behind us, full access to the VIP tent (read: bottomless champagne and delicious food), rubbing elbows with all of the fanciest people in town. You never know what magical moments you can create for yourself :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

A positive outlook on life, Iranian culture, can teach you how to meditate, an ear or a shoulder if you want to talk or cry (everybody needs a good cry every now and again), share some travel stories, English conversation for those who want to brush up on their skills ;) and breakfast! Who doesn't love breakfast?
