Give me a trail to hike, a bike to pedal, a boat to paddle, a friend to laugh with and I'll be the happiest camper! After travelling NZ with locals, couchsurfing seems like the perfect way to meet new friends and explore the most interesting places. My husband Gavin and I are currently on a new adventure - cycling touring from Berlin to Milan (Czechia, Austria, Slovenia too). We both enjoy being outside, laughing with new friends, fresh food, and local history. We are passionate about community building and would love to learn what makes your community so special.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm all about simple travel. I'm travelling not for luxury, but to explore. I want to meet new people and see new places, especially outdoor destinations. I hope to make new friends and memories through couchsurfing!

Interests

I'm especially interested in vibrant communities. What makes each town/group special? How do people make beauty in their environment?
