About Me

CURRENT MISSION

After three years of being back in my home town of Wellington, New Zealand, hosting counchsurfers and working as a lawyer, I am off to South America for another adventure!

ABOUT ME

i am a lover of life, music, travelling, beaches, and partying!

me encanta la vida, musica, viajando, las playas y fiestas!

PHILOSOPHY

to live life with as little a negative impact on people, animals, and the environment as possible while still having a great time. always remembering that a small gesture of kindness can have a huge impact on the person receiving it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i joined cs while travelling, but have hosted many people over the past three years of being at home. i prefer to surf/host for at least a few days in order to get to know my fellow cs'ers better and experience a deeper level of cultural exchange.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

wow, i have had the most incredible experiences couchsurfing! pretty much everybody i have met has been amazing and made my travels that much better, infinitely better than staying in hostels. i love meeting locals and learning about their lifestyles.
