ABOUT ME
I am from Auckland in New Zealand, I am a producer of film, I am currently working on 3 short films, a music video and a feature film.
I spent 6 months of last year travelling around South America (Chile (Valparaiso, San Pedro and Santiago), Argentina (Buenos Aires and Iguazu) and Brasil (Rio de Janiero), Europe via car with 3 of my best friends (Spain, across the South of France, through Italy, Greece, Macedonia, Serbia, Bosnia, Croatia, Slovenia, Hungary, Austria, Czech Republic, Poland, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, back to France, England), and then North America to finish the trip (New York for a week and a road trip around California (Los Angeles, San Diego, Grand Canyon, Lake Tahoe, San Fran).
I am now back in NZ working and saving money to go travelling again! I am living with my father at the moment and have no space to take couchsurfers in but I am looking for an opportunity to move into a place where I can host and I am recommending CS to everyone I know :)
PHILOSOPHY
Love is all you need
Just do it
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I found out about Couch Surfing just before I started travelling and joined up to see if it would be something I was interested in while travelling, My friends and I stayed at as many couch surfs as we could get all over Europe and we had such an incredible time! Our first couch surf is something I will never forget in my life! I love meeting new people, especially travellers with interesting stories :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have been in a few different couch surfs now, in Greece, in Austria, in Poland, in Germany, In the Netherlands, in Belgium, and the last one was in Paris, France :) I love couch surfing, you get to meet the most interesting people and you get to have not only a cultural exchange but an exchange of so many other things as well!!
