About Me

I love the ocean and spend all of my spare time sailing, surfing, diving, kite surfing, waterskiing and anything else I can do in the water. And over winter I happily settle for snow and ski most mornings before work. I created an online company a few years ago and am really lucky that before Covid it allowed me to travel a lot. But post Covid I’ve decided to spit my time between Nelson and Queenstown, so hosting is a great way to meet new people while staying in NZ. There’s no set schedule, so send me a message and I’ll let you know if I’m in Nelson or Queenstown, and I can host at either place if I’m home.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When living and travelling overseas I’ve always preferred meeting locals. And now it's a great opportunity for me to show people a non-touristy version of Nelson or Queenstown.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

An open water dive with 30+ bull and tiger sharks, and no cage.
