About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Unfortunately I am not able to host at the moment but more than happy to do some local exploring both in and outside of Winnipeg with anyone that is interested especially on weekends. Don't hesitate to send me a message!

If I happen to be in the same city as you anywhere in the world I am always keen to meet up and do some sightseeing together!

ABOUT ME

I studied biological sciences and have been working and a biologist ever since. After university I moved to New Zealand to work and travel. That's how I caught the travel bug!

I value kindness and I'm always grateful for the kindness I have received from strangers.

I like coffee, bike rides and anything outdoors. Going for a hike, embracing nature, new cultures and foods are things that I enjoy about traveling. There's also no better way to learn how others live than to experience it with them because it really is the people you meet that truly make the place. My personality is laid back and easy going.

PHILOSOPHY

Live loudly and live with intention

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people; uncover inspiration in unlikely conversations; encounter new perspectives and collect beautiful memories. I've been fortunate to have found deep connections with incredible strangers along my travels and I hope it continues.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have only been a guest with some amazing people and have met up with CS's both at home and abroad. The CS community is always fantastic.

Interests

I like to eat food which coincides with my interest in cooking and learning new recipes. I'd love to learn how to sail. Join a crew and embark on a voyage somewhere around the world. This would be an adventure of a lifetime.

Other hobbies include: Scuba Diving, Ultimate Frisbee, Rock Climbing, Fishing, Canoe trips and attending Music Festivals

Music, Movies, and Books

Movie: A Knight's Tale
Music: Alternative rock/pop
Book: The Golden Compass series

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To be honest I don't think I've done anything amazing but one of the most memorable things someone has said to me is that you don't have to do amazing things and that being your best self is good enough.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to share a drink with others and share my passions in life and learn about theirs

I also really enjoy making food together while we do all of this!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good chat, friendly smile and anything to make my stay easier for the host.
