About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to enjoy life in the heart of Auckland and keep on fighting for a better world

ABOUT ME

Hi,
I spent some time a few years back in England, mostly East London, squating and experiencing the joys of communal living. I loved it, had a ball, and have learnt a lot. When it was time to return home I didn't just want to get on a plane, flying sucks, so a mate suggested we cycle. Sure, how hard can it be?!
After over a year of amazing adventures and meeting some great CS hosts we made it back to NZ - now keen to give back some CS karma!
Generally I am a pretty easy going, adventurous person. Up for a laugh and a good time but also serious about finding solutions to the worlds problems and actively trying to build a better one.
I am a vegetarian, love to dance, get outta town into the mountains as much as I can, and am interested in meeting lots of people and hearing their thoughts.

PHILOSOPHY

Anarchist politics, environmental/eco philosophies, using the people in our community to destroy the current unsustainable, unjust world and create a new, long lasting one in its place. Its a dream.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One that sticks out is hanging out with a boy in a refugee village on the thai burmese border.. he was so friendly and willing to talk and able to look on the bright side even after spending his whole life in the camp. Made me very humble, sad, and hopeful.
