About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To live the nomad life

ABOUT ME

I'm usually found with copious amounts of coffee in one hand and a book in the other. I sometimes mix up my words, and am full of facial expressions.
I am a warm, laid back, quirky, nerdy, friendly and open person... although I tend to be shy at first and have my head in the clouds; the pitfalls of being a writer. I love to meet new people and am always up for any adventure. I hate itineraries and time, I enjoy going with the flow and experiencing life... I have more of a bohemian spirit.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently I live in Vancouver in a small apartment with my roommate and cat so I can't offer a couch often, but I'm available as a "tour guide" and attend meetups!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelled Europe and the UK. It was the best experience of my life.
