About Me

I live in Europe, and during the spring and summer I work at English camps in Germany.

I my profile set to my parents home in Canada, but never got any requests there… we live in a small town in the middle of nowhere. My WarmShowers profile is set to Canada… that works a bit better since there is a map on that site. We usually get a couple cyclists a year.

I also use BeWelcome, which is set to my home in Canada. If you found my Couchsurfing profile through there, feel free to send me a message, and let me know you are travelling in Canada.

For now I have changed my profile to Sofia. I lived there for a few months and maybe I can arrange for a friend to host you there.

No smoking here.

I have had the most amazing opportunities and have met the most incredible people through Couchsurfing. It’s pretty cliche but it’s true.

I absolutely loved my hosting experiences, but as you can see, I have been a guest more than a host. This is largely because I have been in Europe for four years, but mostly as an au pair and working in English camps. When I have been an au pair, I have to ask the family I stay with before hosting. Usually this is not a problem, but the main reason I haven’t hosted more is simply because I have stayed with families in small towns where couchsurfers rarely visit, so I hardly get any requests. I have a lot of hosting to do in the future…

If you have nothing on your profile and no references, then please send me a detailed request. Otherwise a copied and pasted message is totally okay.

I’m living in Europe, but I don’t really have a permanent address. When I have a place that I can host, I will update my location. Other times I might have a place for just a few days, and I look at public trips to try to offer someone a place wherever I am.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When travelling, it is the best way to experience a county. When hosting, it is always interesting to learn how others travel.

Interests

Marathon and ultra running, cycling, tennis, board games.... and of course discovering other cultures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Rafted on the river in Bosnia at the end of December.

Finished a 105km ultramarathon in Slovakia.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can juggle, I suppose I could teach that. I even made some money doing some busking as a juggler.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’m always happy to bring food and/or drinks for my hosts. I can clean and help around the house too. Most of the time I do not have much planned during the day when I am travelling, I just enjoy meeting people and experiencing different cultures, so I’m happy to do some work for you and try to make myself useful.
