CURRENT MISSION

Barcelona? Madrid? Paris? Umm, not sure yet, but definitely want to go to Europe this year.

ABOUT ME

My friends introduced me to the idea of CS, and I loved it. I love meeting new people, traveling, exploring cultures, places, engaging in interesting experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

Taking good care of yourself creates well-being and brings joy to life and ability to be helpful to others. I love to share... meals, happiness, success, life... we are all in the same boat together, let's help each-other enjoy the ride.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a couch in my living room, and I love exploring my own city and when I'm not busy we could do it together. If I'm running around trying to juggle my many commitments I can at least tell you where all the cool places are. Get a taste for TO at yelp: http://stazie.yelp.ca

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Traveled to LA and San Francisco. Was hosted by friends of friends and introduced both to Couch Surfing. Although they are not official couch surfers, deep in their hearts they are! I loved SF, what an amazing city, condensed version of the best of TO and much more (I will not even mention the weather).

Interests

I'm into indie rock, various ethnic foods, cinema, theater, a little bit of pop-culture (told you, I work in advertising). Practice yoga and meditation, and ride a scooter. I have coffee once a week (ok, sometimes twice) and I love the buzz I get from it, so out of love for my addictions I don't want to ruin the enjoyment factor by building a tolerance.

Teach, Learn, Share

Let's just connect and share life experience, who knows how we can enrich each-other's life, possibility abounds. I can share whatever little knowledge I have of business and marketing, especially online. Want to learn speed-reading and deepen my understanding of people's behavior.
