About Me

CURRENT MISSION

make rainbow hypnosis cookies for everybody on the planet and then some

ABOUT ME

I work for charities, raising money, its a nice job :)
I am vegan, so I don't eat any animal products, I thought I should add this in here because a lot of my couch surfers make me dinner that I have to turn down because it contains dairy or whatever and I feel bad :(
If you stay with me I'd prefer if you ate vegetarian, I can cook for you too! I have a juicer if you're in to raw foods, and you are most welcome to come for a run around the bays with me x

PHILOSOPHY

“Act as if what you do makes a difference. It does.”

Leave the world a better place than which you found it :) think positive, see the beauty in other people and in yourself, have a goal in life to be happy and make other people happy too!
I live my life to be happy and to make positive change in the world, even if its only small things! Aren't spiders amazing?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

making people feel at home when they're far away, listening to stories, dreams and life plans, making plans, breaking plans, meandering along.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Thank you all for being a part of Rutland Road (you know who you are) what fun we had! we all loved having you to stay and hope to meet again some day in some little corner of the world.
To those of you that stayed with me in manapouri, you are lucky to have experienced that beautiful lance wood tree and stunning views, the house caught fire so no more surfing in that little paradise.
