About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To introduce visitors to Aotearoa/New Zealand to kiwis (thinking people & birds, not really the fruit ...)

Music, Movies, and Books

Best writer in the world? - Ursula le Guin (I would read shopping lists written by her!); also have enjoyed everything I've read of Margaret Atwood & Barbara Kingsolver
Music: "eclectic" is best description I think; Auckland offers a lot of live music variety & opportunities

Teach, Learn, Share

One of the reasons I enjoy the CouchSurfing project is its "community" nature; I'm also a member of my local Freecycle community (www.freecycle.org) & BookCrossing (www.bookcrossing.com), which are similar in their approach

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, United Kingdom, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

New Zealand
