About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life the best I can until I'm able to retire and take it easy.

ABOUT ME

I've recently moved to Montreal to undertake a MSc. in Atmospheric Sciences in McGill. I spent most of the last few years living between Toronto and the high arctic of Canada, with some travelling in between. I'm enjoying my time here in Montreal and looking forward to discovering more of the city and meeting new people here.

PHILOSOPHY

Always look on the bright side and roll with the punches.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have so far only had a limited opportunity to meet other couchsurfers but the few experiences I've had have been great. I find this an amazing way to travel as you get to meet local people which adds so much to the experience of visiting a new place.

Interests

Music: playing bass and guitar and going to see live music.

Some sports, though I'm not a particularly skilled athlete. Biking and hockey (of course). I also enjoy many outdoor activities like swimming, canoeing, hiking... but living in a big city doesn't always offer too many opportunities to do these things.

Plus, of course, traveling and meeting new people.
