ABOUT ME

I enjoy savoring; whether it's food, wine, a good book, or a view, I like to take the time to appreciate things. I truly believe you get what you invest in a moment back!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My living situation wasn't conducive to hosting again until recently but now I'm back and excited to meet some new people and show them our fantastic city!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been to England, Belgium and Spain via CSing. Every last experience was wonderful and I'm so delighted to have met the people I have. I haven't hosted as much as I'd like to (Calgary isn't the biggest Tourist Hub on the planet) but now that I have a steady home, I hope to change that. (Recent adventures since writing this are Oregon, San Francisco, New York and Hong Kong!)
