Hi, I'm Katie from Canada. I recently finished a Masters in Urban Planning and I work in active school transportation research. I'm very polite, friendly, clean, responsible - all the things you'd want from someone crashing on your couch! I'm sorry that I can't accept any guests right now and that my profile is quite sparse - I just created this account and it's a work in progress.
Interested in Cooking
Interested in Cycling
Fluent in English
Learning German
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I'm headed to a conference to present on my research next week in Washington, DC and I'm staying a couple extra days that I have no funding for through school/work. Several friends recommended this site as a fun way to find a place to stay.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Spent a year of high school living in Switzerland. It was such a wonderful experience and that's when I started learning German.
What I Can Share With Hosts
A friendly smile and positive spirit! I'm a pretty decent cook, too, so I'd be happy to make you a vegetarian dinner. And I'd also share my own couch with you if you later come to Toronto.
My Interests
I love being active - running, cycling, swimming, team sports - you name it, I like it! If I wasn't travelling in winter I would be bringing my frisbee with me.
