Hello! I'm Chris, a 25 year old adventure loving - impulsive trip planning guy from New Zealand! I live in the mindset that travel is a lifestyle, so I try to host and meet couch surfers when I can.

I am a pretty active person, most days I am out slack lining or climbing. Love hiking and camping. Have lived the past few months in my van traveling New Zealand and now am based back in the Kapiti Coast.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why not be on couch surfing, there's an element of freedom and excitement about travelling in a foreign place and learning the people and lifestyle. Love to be open to any new approach and view on life, there is a lesson in everything 😁 but life is also to short to take too seriously!

Interests

I have many hobbies and interests. Anything creative and requires balance generally takes my interest. I love music, it's the universal language. Currently working on starting my own Distillery, training and studying to complete the IBD diploma in brewing and distillation.

Music, Movies, and Books

I generally like any New Zealand rock music, but appreciate any music that comes from the heart. The pop scene is not my thing..
Currently reading whatever I get recommended.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Mud fights on a beach in south Korea, leading to a night of fireworks and soju with new long time friends. Also highfived a bunch of people at the leaning tower of Pisa 🤚

Teach, Learn, Share

Keen to practice my German with someone, I can offer New Zealand perspectives and lifestyle perhaps. If your lucky I might have decided on a philosophy, it's always changing as life moves forwards.

I am self taught on the drums, okay on the guitar. I have a harmonica, banjo, and bass guitar I am slowly learning to play also🤘

What I Can Share with Hosts

A bit of New Zealand culture and good laughs. Will help out where I can 😊
Have a go slacklining, climbing, or juggling with me!
