Hello! I am currently travelling New Zealand after spending the last 26 years of my life on a small magical island that believes in fairies and the cats have no tails...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Local experiences and knowledge of the more low key hikes/trails...and hopefully likeminded people to share an adventure with!

I love the idea of hosting myself one day too to return the favour :)

Interests

I loveee being outdoors and spontaneously exploring new places. Bit of a lone wolf when it comes to travelling but on the path to realising people are awesome if you let them in!

Big into mountain biking at the moment, inspired by the unreal trails and forests in NZ. I have done a few awesome heli-rides and big adventure days to earn the views and downhill. Still plenty of trails to discover.

Recently developed a taste for craft beer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hmm most of my achievements are volunteering, personal goals or sports related...I like to compete!

Most recent would be completing the Queenstown half marathon and coming 4th in the Trans NZ enduro, a 6 day back to back mountain bike race 🤘

I have been very fortunate to witness the world famous TT motorbike races most years of my life!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a very inquisitive and curious nature so love to listen and learn anything new, whether it's the local history, a CS's passion or a skill count me in!

On my to-do list; improve my Spanish, learn guitar, learn some basic knots, ride a horse, experience farm life, learn to manual my MTB.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Anything I can! Stories about life on the Isle of Man, adventure buddy, helping hand about the garden if needed.
