Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live in a flat of four people and we have a comfortable couch available for couch-surfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far I have had people stay with me on my couch but I have never surfed anyone's couches (well, not through this website anyway) so I am looking forward to that.

Interests

My interests are largely music related! (ie. I my favourite things to do are writing music, playing music, listening to music and watching live music). However, I'm pretty sure I'm not as boring as I sound. I like to ride around Wellington on my bike to make sure I don't get too unfit. I also like to climb mountains too but I haven't done that for a while. But generally I guess I like to socialise and hang out with people. I spend a lot of time with my siblings and their young children and I am really close with my family.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have climbed to the top of two volcanoes (Ngauruhoe, and Taranaki). There's more stuff I think, but that's my favourite so i'll just put that for now.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I can teach the guitar and the bass guitar. I've always wanted to learn French.
