Hey hey!
My name is Val, and I've just had the most amazing backpacking experience in my life! Couchsurfing saved me a few times there :D Currently, I am in my last year of undergrad studies in Montreal and very busy; however, looking forward to my next travels and where the opportunity takes me :) Feel free to ask for recommendations on what to do/ how to travel in Canada (Quebec/Ontario), Australia (the East Coast), and the Philippines (Visayas/Siargao) ...I will be able to help you with those :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sometimes, it is the perfect experience to stay with the local. Plus, the people you can meet due to couchsurfing - they create best memories.

Teach, Learn, Share

Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered you will never grow.

If you can see it in your mind - you can hold it in your hand.

All the so-called "secrets of success" will not work unless you do.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Great conversations, delish meals, help with the house chores, Russian language practice, positive vibes only.
