Travel information

I am currently

Description

I discovered my love of traveling when I was 18 when I took a gap year before starting university. On that 7 month trip I learned more about the world through experiencing other cultures than I had ever imagined was possible. I love hearing people's stories, learning about the adversity they have overcome and how they became who they are. I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in Kinesiology and Health Sciences, I have planted trees in the interior of BC for the last 3 summers, I am looking to enhance my personal growth through challenging and fulfilling endeavors while learning new skills and meeting new people. I love yoga and mobility work, soccer, hiking, and skiing.

More details about your skills

I was a lifeguard and swim instructor for 5 years, I am CPR and First Aid certified. I have a professional Kinesiology degree from the University of British Columbia and worked for a year as a kinesiologist in a health clinic in East Vancouver. I have spent the last three summers working as a tree-planter in the interior of BC and have loved the challenge and opportunity of working in the bush.

What else ...

I like yoga and mobility work, I got obsessed with gymnastics for a year and still like to flip around every once in a while. Settlers of Catan is a great game, I like chess but am not very good. I have never played backgammon but I'm willing to learn.
