We are a couple, taking a little holiday from life to focus on our creative projects and see the world!

From rambling around Eastern Europe, working the land in Italy and backpacking all over India, this trip has taken us to some amazing places, introduced us to some wonderful people and given us some truly unique experiences.

Our next and final stop is New Zealand where we intend to get working holiday visas and settle for a while. We are so excited to explore this beautiful country and settle into kiwi life!

We are both laid back, low maintenance guests who like relax with good food and conversation... and maybe a glass of wine or two.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We want to hang out with local people and learn what we can about the areas we are staying in. We want to see the sides the tourists don't see.
