Coming from a family where my Grandfather served in the New Zealand Airforce, and my Father working in Tourism Marketing for New Zealand; I have grown up living life very transiently.

I travel light, and am focusing this trip around sketching towns and buildings, and taking portraits of people.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I am currently wanting to explore places where I can continue my research in developing sustainable technologies to reduce wealth inequality.

I will be visiting various Universities, and makerspaces around Europe and Japan to see where I could commit to live in for the next few years.

I am also wanting to catch up with many friends who I have met somewhere in the world, who now live across Europe. I am aiming to couchsurf so I can find in between places to stay before meeting my friends, or finding hostels in larger cities.

Intereses

With a passion for snow sports, hiking, cycling, swimming, photography, and sustainable technologies in the built environment I like to live life to the fullest.

I am also passionate about cooking, and would like to learn any tricks and local recipes whenever I can, and in return am able to cook some traditional Japanese food provided there are ingredients available!
