Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Imprint myself in as many countires and wonderful things that this world has to offer
ABOUT ME
I am currently finishing off my year abroad working as a teacher of English in Stockholm, Sweden. This experience has been beyond my wildest dreams. I have been able to travel around Europe quite frequently and will have seen 20 countries by the time I go back to Canada this summer.
I am a very outgoing and friendly person who has been able to come out of my shell that much more after living and traveling around Europe alone. I really enjoy the company of new friends because its important to surround yourself with people of different cultures, thoughts and experiences.
PHILOSOPHY
Here is a few of my favorite quotes that I live by:
~ Work like you don't need money, Love like you've never been hurt, And dance like no one's watching ~
~ Friendship is a single soul dwelling in two bodies ~
~ An eye for eye only ends up making the whole world blind ~

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Hope to experience my first one soon!
Interests
Right now my biggest hobby would have to be traveling around the world. As a result, this has ignited my passion for taking pictures. Reading is definitely another of my pass time, as I enjoy to just curl up with a book and let my mind and imagination wonder. And of course I love to dance!!!
