We are a couple of wrinkly oldies. From 2000 we sailed on our yacht around the Pacific....over to French Polynesia. Then we sailed up to China.....then back to New Zealand.
Now it's the turn of the 'kerosene' sails and for our exploring we will fly to our destinations.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

AS A HOST......
We can offer a bed in one of the best spot in the world.
Our yacht is available for hire if you want to explore the Pelorus Sound ( we will be your crew)
AS A GUEST.......
We don't want to go on bus tours. We don't want to stay in hotels full of tourists. We want to explore the out of the way places....we want to meet real people.
