About Me

I'm a Chef/Recipe Developer in Toronto. I have lived here for nearly a year after living abroad in Australia for one year. Before that, I was going back to school in Vancouver, studying graphic design.

Travel is a great passion, and I've visited nearly 30 countries including North Korea and Iceland as two as my most memorable.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I spread the word to other friends and tell them what CS is really about and the amazing people and experiences you can make. I also try to get back to everyone who messages me, and I like it if you do to.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My last guest, Young, stayed with me for two nights. On the second day, I became ill and left the house for the morning thinking I would be back later. I ended up being transferred to the hospital, and I didn't know how to reach Young. He had found my cell phone and contacted the right person who knew what hospital I was in, and found his way using transit to come visit me.
