Hello! I'm Catherine from New Zealand, traveling until early next year and currently in South East Asia.
I tried couchsurfing for the first time in Germany and loved it - I found it an amazing way to meet people and get in touch with the heart of a place. After Germany, my friend May and I couchsurfed our way through India, mainly in Rajasthan, and I was overwhelmed by the open-mindedness and generosity, not to mention how cool it is to find the local's go-to spot for food or music or whatever.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Let me paint you a picture: hot summers day, a budding nine year old builds a grand and post-apocalyptic Lego city, enters it into a local competition, waits with baited breath and wins the top prize. Amazing.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Terrible speller, average tea maker, filled with endless questions... Has a moderate to high success rate cooking poached eggs and can take quality group pictures.
