ABOUT ME

Finance student with a love for entrepreneurship, travelling and expanding my cultural viewpoint! I love music, art shows, films and learning about cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

Money can't buy happiness but it can buy marshmallows, which is basically the same thing!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Anyone who happens to visit Winnipeg can join me for some talk about music, art and movies! I'm a wide spread traveller and have heard that CS travellers get more out of travelling than others! I want to advocate for that as well...but have to do my first CS experience first!

Music, Movies, and Books

Love Wes Anderson, Woody Allen and Quentin Tarantino movies!

My all time favourites are Darjeeling Limited, Midnight in Paris and all of Tarantino's movies.

I also love short films of which Alex Beh and Pompey are favourites. My single favourite short film is God of Love..you should watch it :)

I listen to all sorts of music, literally everything but country! I can study to jazz or blues, get work done to soul and R&B. Get ready to go out to electronic music. And can relax to indie and folk music.

Some favourites are Kings of Convenience, Beirut, Sidney Bechet, Chet Faker, Flume, Nicolas Jaar, Aloe Blacc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Met a blind man in Istanbul, made him laugh, he grabbed my hand and told me to "Always be true to myself". Have never stopped wanting to travel since.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm passionate about democratizing finance. That is the way we invest our money. Currently the average american is invested in 5 oil stocks through mutual funds, pensions etc. While the average american also gets less than market returns.

The idealized utopia would have investments in innovative companies, moral and value based companies and companies working to help the world. While also being transparent and working to make returns. This is what I have been working towards with a lot of what I do. I could talk for hours about what would happen if we all invested into what we believed in :)

I'm an avid reader, listen to incredible amounts of podcasts and am open to learning about any subject. International politics is a good one!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I always bring outstanding matcha, stories of travels and pretty hopefully amazing conversation!
