I'm a Kiwi! - Yes you can call me that! New Zealanders like to refer to themselves as a Kiwi. Why? Well, firstly it's not a Kiwi like the fruit, so don't worry - you are not calling us a fruit! Rather it's a our rare and flightless bird that we affectionately love. This particular Kiwi is all about seeing as much of the world as possible!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like the philosophy behind it. I've been meaning to give it a go for a while and finally I am. I believe in the values of modesty, appreciation of this wonderful world and the spirit of humanity. I'm excited to see this idea in action and give as much as I can in return.

Interests

I love anything to do with the outdoors. Park, Forests, Trekking, Running, Mountain Biking. I also love the water, so beaches, lakes, waterfalls, swimming, boating. When I'm on an adventure to a new place I'm in my element, this is what I do. One thing that brings me a lot of joy is seeing people live their lives and do something passionately.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm really big on folk music and anything acoustic right now. I learnt the guitar recently and it really brought out an appreciation for a more live music sound. Before that I was pretty big on electronic music, in fact I was a DJ in London for a few years but I'm much more chill now.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I camped on an Island in Canada for 6 months.
Trekked Everest for 2 Months
