CURRENT MISSION

Travel As Much As Possible!

ABOUT ME

I'm an extremely enthusiastic outgoing person. I'm always optimistic and try to find the good in everything! I'm really into sport and love the outdoors. I worked as a Civil Engineer in London post University and some world travelling. I lasted a solid 5 months before I decided I need to shake things up a bit so got myself a job as a Civil Engineer in Christchurch, New Zealand. I moved at the start of May 2013 and will be here for the foreseeable future!

PHILOSOPHY

Don't make a mountain out a molehill!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I started couchsurfing post university when travelling America. Unfortunately I have never been able to host until now and I'm looking forward to doing so and repaying the generosity that I received

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I travelled America Couchsurfing for 3 months and had the best experiences. I met some absolutely amazing people. I want to continue the journey in other parts of the world and facilitate people in experiencing life in NZ

Interests

I love to play and watch nearly every sport under the sun, with football (soccer), tennis, squash, badminton and golf taking precedence. I love skiing, with Ski fields in NZ now only an hour or so away! I absolutely love good food and drink, with my achilles heel being red wine & seafood. My favorite hobby however is beer! I'm a bit of an adrenaline junkie too, I love theme parks, have bungee jumped and para-glided,just waiting to tick skydiving off the list!

Music, Movies, and Books

As much as i love music, I'm regretfully a bit middle of the road and lack an identity. I enjoy all types of films, comedy on top, then action.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Dangling off the edge of the Grand Canyon, 4000ft up without ropes or a barrier has to be number 1! Standing on the top of Yosemite falls after a grueling hike with views over the half dome is a close second!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to think I can share my knowledge of good food and drink. Possibly some of my sarcastic humour too!
