About Me

** Please read "Additional Info" under "My Home" before requesting**

I was born in Montreal, moved to Vancouver when I was 18 and studied in Scotland for a year

I worked as a cook for a few years but ended up getting an electrical engineering degree and turning into a software engineer.

During the summer I like to hike and kayak. During the winter I like to hibernate. I think next winter I'm going to give winter-hiking a shot.

Been vegetarian for a while, working towards going vegan

Other hobbies are board games, kayaking and hiking

Dana's on my friends list if you want to read about her. She's creative, likes to cosplay, watches too much anime, works in IT and is the people-person of the relationship (basically I'm the awkward nerd and she's the social nerd)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Dana and I have been hosted in several cities and have had so many amazing experiences from this.

Now that we've had the chance to host some people we've got to make some cool friendships and enjoy new cultures and foods.
