CURRENT MISSION

Working towards living my dream of drawing, yoga and traveling the world.

ABOUT ME

I'm passionate about yoga, wellness and nutrition. I practice vinyasa flow and Acroyoga mostly. I am also vegan and love to cook all the time! I can teach you how to make amazing raw vegan desserts.

I'm a freelance illustrator and graphic designer. I love to work with small companies who are passionate about making a positive contribution to the world. I also create art prints for my online store in my spare time.

I'm interested in anything to do with sustainability, spirituality and travel. I also love being outdoors and walking. Carel and I both love great coffee and we like to hunt down sustainable/organic roasters when we travel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We host people at our place in Auckland. I love meeting people, and couch surfing is a great way to bring the world to me while I'm not traveling.

We are currently 5 months into our round the world trip through Japan, India and Europe. We have had some amazing hosts and are excited to meet more people!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Carel and I have hosted quite a couchsurfers. We love meeting other travelers and sharing stories and meals together. Having conversations about different countries, cultures and languages is one of our favourite things to do.

Music, Movies, and Books

So many books! The Outlander series is an all time favourite. Harry Potter will never get old - i've read the series more times than I can count. I also love non fiction, especially books about spirituality, yoga, nutrition or entrepreneurs.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Parasailing in Corfu, eating cheese and wine under the lights of the Eiffel tower, spending my 19th birthday at a French Chateaux, staying at an Ashram in Rishikesh, seeing snow for the first time in Germany!
