CURRENT MISSION:

Learn to fly

ABOUT ME:

You would probably call me free-spirited and independent. Seeing new places, doing new things, trying new foods and meeting new people keep me motivated to stay on the road.

I have been living abroad for the last 3 years between Australia and New Zealand, now currently backpacking SE Asia!

Currently: Western Australia
Next stop: Western Australia...because lockdown

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING:

Have hosted around 30 couch surfers in Queenstown, New Zealand!

Now I am on the road to explore this brilliant world, make new friends, and get inspired.

Interests

Photography- amateur, I take the occasional rad photo

Documentaries-mostly about sharks or space or both

Road trips-which I would get around to more often if petrol wasn't $2.25/litre down under!

Hikes-on a sunny day

Snowboarding- might as well make the most out of a winter season

DIY projects-oh yes

Running-when it's hot enough to jump in the lake afterwards

Reading-comes in spurs
