Hi!

My name is Ben, I've recently moved to Rotorua to start a new job. Rotorua is a great city and offers many activities for travellers and tourists. These include the luge, hot mud pools, the Polynesian Spa, Maori cultural activities, and if you are into the outdoors, the Redwoods are a great place for mountain biking and walking.

I am currently living in a flat with 3 girls and 1 guy. This makes it difficult to host people as we currently do not have a spare room. However, I love to show people around my city and take them to the best places. So please feel free to message me and I can show you the best places to see and the best things to do in Rotorua.

A little bit about me: I studied in Auckland and recently returned to NZ after backpacking through South America for 6 months. I am now working full time for a local law firm.

Love to meet new people and share my culture with them.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Hitchhiked around the South Island for 3 weeks. I met some amazing people and would love to do it again!

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I like to help people learn more English and of course to teach people about the best Kiwi slang, like when to say "sweet as bro" and "yeah nah".
