About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finding magic...

ABOUT ME

I travel alot so couches will come in handy. My place is not for everyone but some will love it.
I crew/chef on sailing yachts for a living. That's what I've mostly been up to for the last 24 years. I did own my own 40ft sailboat for a few years and sailed it single handed in the Sea of Cortez and Mexican Pacific Coast until I ran out of money...
Just got back from 2 1/2 months in India and now certified yoga teacher!! Yay.

PHILOSOPHY

To let the magic flow. To feel it daily. To give and share.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing and hosting!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I practically moved in with my host in Auckland!! Had a wonderful time and made a new good friend.

Interests

Sailing, playing music, hiking, yoga are my main interests.
I love animals but my lifestyle makes it unfair to have one.
I like bugs.
Now I have 3 chickens!!!! Reddy, Whitey and Pinky.
