I’m a New Zealander who has spent a lot of time growing up in Australia. I used to row for Junior Australian Rowing team and go to university. After issues with injury I left the sporting world.
Then I chose to leave my city I grew up in and started moving around and trying to remove myself from the capitalistic mindset that big western cities creates.
Now I live everyday how I feel and get to live on the road and meet the most amazing people every day. It’s great. Now I would like to meet you :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am currently trying to hitch hike, camp and volunteer as much as possible to stretch my money. My biggest commodity is time so I am happy to be less comfortable so my savings don’t become a limiting factor.
I love meeting and staying with local people so I am away from other tourists. I want to see how local people live, not holidayers.
After my travels I would love to host people and give back to the CS community as I think it’s AWESOME!!!

Interests

I love raving, walking and exercise, playing cards, listening to music, eating good food, I used to work in a cocktail bar so unfortunately I have weak knees for a negroni or martini.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to learn about how life is for you in your country. Nobody gets to choose where they are born and who their parents are and these things influence peoples mindset and lives. I love food and want to know all the foods from your home or where your are living that bring you joy.

I would love to share with you my stories of travelling and hitch hiking. My lifestyle is sometimes lonely or scary but I believe that people should live their lives how they like and not for capitalistic values.
