Overview
About Me
I am a 24 year old male currently travelling though Europe. I am a big fan of the the outdoors (hiking, biking & swimming), I play guitar and sing and I am also a keen sportsman. When I'm not doing the above I enjoy learning about physics and the natural world but also know how to relax
I live in Wellington NZ but am currently living and working in the Netherlands.
I have done a fair bit of travel in my time, including backpacking and work trips and while I have had friends I met abroad come & stay I am new to couch-surfing,
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I just enjoy meeting open minded people, sharing a drink sharing a story or an experience and making friends. Travelling alone I like the experience of meeting people and sharing moments to make new friends.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In 2015 I climbed Mt, Ngaruhoe (Mt Doom from Lord of the Rings) in a blizzard as night was falling, then as I descended the cloud and snow cleared and the summit came into view lit by the last of the sunset, that was pretty spectacular.
Teach, Learn, Share
While I am young and have a lot to learn, I also have a lot to teach and share, you will have to meet me to find out more.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Stories & general enthusiasm, I will be keen to get out and see the sights, experience the music and eat the food. Will also of course be more than happy to offer insights into travel NZ or any other place I have visited.
