Hey everybody,

I've been loving my travels throughout NZ. Kiwis are so chill and real. I've been living in Franz Josef for the past 4 months and now I'm back to traveling throughout the South Island. I'm super into yoga. When I'm not on my yoga mat, you can typically find me hiking, dancing, loving some good music, or curled up with a book. I've recently gotten stoked on fermented beverages and foods... and like pretending to be an alchemist. Hope to catch up with you and learn about the amazing place you live.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hoping to meet some locals of New Zealand and learn about the true kiwi experience. I love how travel encourages connection, meeting all sorts of different people from all sorts of different places.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can talk about yoga for ages. I'm also super passionate about massage and happy to share/teach some of the things I've learned.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm all about catching up and sharing some laughs. Ask me anything... yoga, massage, fungi, something about the mountains of NC... We could even share a morning yoga practice.
Oh and I'm a respectful and tidy guest.
