ABOUT ME

I'm an outgoing, positive and friendly Canadian who loves to travel!

PHILOSOPHY

"Yes"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Although I do not have a couch for people to crash on, I am hoping to meet new people during my trip throughout South America ! I would also love to have my first couch surfing experience this trip!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I don't have any couchsurfing experience, besides crashing on my friend's couches!! I have also met up with a fellow surfer while travelling, which was great! :)

Interests

I enjoy canoeing, kayaking, hiking, and generally spending time outdoors, exploring and being active. I also listen to many genres of music and love going to concerts. I really like art, photography, reading and new experiences!! I am very interested in sustainability and the environment in general.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really like ska, metal, and psychobilly music, but I also listen to classical, punk, rockabilly, and other genres of music.
I'm not a huge movie watcher, but I love comedies and various action movies! Zoolander is my favourite movie, hands down.
I love reading! I used to work at a book store, which exemplifies my passion for books. Margaret Atwood is my favourite author.

Teach, Learn, Share

Through my passion for environmental sustainability and my course "Environment and Business" I can (with your permission) try to help you make more environmentally friendly behavioural changes. I can also potentially point out ways throughout your home that could be improved to reduce your energy, paper and water usage.
I also do a lot of outdoor activities, so I can take you canoeing, kayaking, hiking, camping, etc! Or at least teach you about all of those things :)
Also, I can definitely tell you all about Canada! :)

I have held various jobs, such as kayak instructor in Perth, canoe trip leader and lifeguard in Ontario, event planner, researcher, residence life don and a sales rep in a book store! So, I have lots of experiences to share! :D
