Having grown up in the Deep South of New Zealand I've spent the last two years living and working in London. I have tried to spend as much time as possible experiencing Europe. Whether it be skiing in Austria, camping in Croatia , beer drinking in Munich and port tasting in Porto. As much as I enjoy the major tourist cities Europe has to offer, it's the smaller towns off the main track that really excite me. I'm now back home in Dunedin and happy to show off this beautiful little city to anyone who wants to see it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To see more of what Europe has to offer by connecting with other likeminded travellers and seeing cities and towns through a local perspective.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am very open in my taste of music. My personal favourite genre is probably 90's Rock. Bands like the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins and Nirvana are some top favourites. I've also been into modern house music and artists like Jack Johnson and Ben Harper.

Teach, Learn, Share

As a native English speaker traveling Europe I have realised how privileged I am to be able to communicate to almost everyone to some level. I how can understand how important it is to speak more than one language. I have started learning German and always try learn some phrases from where ever I go.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Friendly conversation. Great humour and travel stories.
