Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To romp around Europe for as long as I can.
ABOUT ME
Born in NZ! Grew up there and studied Audio Engineering. I am often jumping between Australia and New Zealand as my family live in Australia which is good for me because the money in Aus is a wee bit better. My girlfriend and I are heading to the UK to begin our overseas adventures, we plan on volunteering and wwoofing our way around as a cheaper option. I'm very interested in music and anything creative.
PHILOSOPHY
Live, love and be gracious. Never let anything bother you too much, live for you and the ones you love.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I am new to couch surfing myself but a few of my friends are hosts, and I have helped them out by offering my couch to some awesome travellers.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Once a few of my friends and I took a whole bunch of couch surfing travellers to the beach in NZ and we hungout all day drinking cider swimming and playing guitar in the sun. With a group of lovely people I'd only just met from France, Germany and Spain. It was magical, I'd love to have more of these experiences.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One of my most amazing experiences for me happened in New Zealand. It was snow season and after finding a few cold stashed beers in the snow me and a few friends took the last and highest lift up the mountain and then continued to hike to the top for the good part of an hour and a half. We arrived to find a beautiful ice blue crater lake at the top of the mountain. We sat down to catch our breath and cracked open a beer, taking in the beauty that surrounded us. Then we all made our way down, the mountain was ours to share, it was so amazing and the sun was setting too! Loved it.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love passing on skills and also learning new ones. I'd be keen to show someone how to play the guitar or the drums, or even teach them a little bit more if they can already play. I'd also love to teach someone how to snowboard or ski too. I'd love to learn more about sustainable living, farming and permaculture. I'd be open to learning about most things.
