Music you might find me listening to while waiting for my plane

I like mostly punk music, like Iggy Pop or Caustic Christ, but I also enjoy some classical music, especially Beethovan. It's a weird mix, I know...

Most Memorable Travel Experience

Backpacked around Vancouver Island with my best friend. We camped in parks and hitch hikes everywhere, which was pretty fun.
When we were on the beach in Nanaimo we met this old drunk guy. He told us that he met Tom Cruise on the beach in Tofino in the middle of the night. Then Tom Cruise went with the old guy to his mom's house for a BBQ apparently...

We also met this guy on a pier who played us "Stairway to Heaven" on an electric piano.

Profile

I am a student from the beautiful province of British Columbia. Languages are my passion, and I am an aspiring writer. My most present goals are to learn the languages of my heritage, which are Russian, Ukrainian and German, as well as studying other things like psychology and journalism.

I have never yet had the oportunity to travel very far, but that will change one day!
