About Me

It's been a few years since I've been on couch surfing and my profile is well due a refresh... jeez that was cringe reading!

I'm live on K rd, in central Auckland. It's the place I grew up in and where all my family are. I've travelled the world and happy to call Auckland home, for now.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm a traveler. I spent much of my 20s with a backpack and a one way ticket. Some of my fondest memories from my travels was staying with locals and meeting new people.

I don't travel much these days, so I see couchsurfing as a way to stay connected to the traveler spirit and give back.

Interests

Travel obviously, Film and TV also obviously. I play a lot of golf.
