  • Description

    Hello hello!!!

    I have a big passion for the outdoors and am always exploring and adventuring somewhere! I have grown up on a small, remote island just a ferry ride away from Vancouver, BC. My hobbies include climbing, caving, backpacking, anything to do with exploring and trying something new.

    I love meeting new people and making friends! I truly enjoy learning about different lifestyles, cultures and languages. Animals are near and dear to my heart, having grown on a small family farm myself. I also love working with children. I have siblings of my own, and am graduating this year with a bachelor in education. I run nature camps in the summer, babysit and nanny!

    I am flexible/adaptable, reliable and hardworking. Being around others brings me much joy, as does being surrounded by nature.
