Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
sTART SAVING AGAIN AFTER SIX MONTHS IN South America. Will be living and working in Wellington.
ABOUT ME
Im a twenty seven year old kiwi girl , and have just returned from an incredible six months travelling South America with my best friend. I like to think I'm an open minded person, who recognises that I don't know everything and wants to learn from others. I~m looking forward to learning about the places I visit through local people and authentic experiences! Now that I have experienced couch surfing , I hope to be able to repay the favour to another traveller.
PHILOSOPHY
A basic philosophy of treat others with respect and kindness and hopefully the favour will be returned. I'm naturally curious and like to think I can see the best in people.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I had a wicked couch surfing experience in Argentina and have now moved back to New Zealand. I will soon be able to host people on my couch ( once I have found a fantastic new flat in Wellington) but in the mean time if you are in Nelson and you want to go for a coffee, drink or just want some advice about the area just send me a message.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I'm glad to say I've climbed the great wall of China and still think the beaches in my home city are some of the most amazing on offer. Snorkeling in the Galapogos Islands , climbing Wayna Michhu and Carnival in Rio were all things I'll never forget.
