About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Mission? Live life! Host people! See the world from as many perspectives as possible
ABOUT ME
I really enjoy lollipops, especially chuppa chups.
PHILOSOPHY
Financial wealth is the least valuable. Find the magic. And have a positive attitude because for petes sake, what's the point in bringing things down? Feel the groove, learn love and share, open up!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have a boyfriend, please do not use this website as a dating service.On a more positive note, I've loved my surfing experiences thus far and met some awesome people! I'm enjoying jumping into the lives of my hosts, discovering new lifestyles and philosophies etc, and I hope that in visiting and eventually hosting people I can do the same.
Interests
I may be no great sportswoman, artist, or intellectual, but I can enrich my life with what I can do. So I play bass and a little guitar, sing, juggle, ride my bike as fast as I can down hills, study maths, write lists. I also like the beach, hackysack, music, playing pool, and philosophical discussions - or arguments in general :p Oh and I also like smilies =)

I'm so non 'well read' that a list of my favourite books would be embarrassingly short. So I'm just going to say that that last book I read was The Great Gatsby, which I very much enjoyed.
- my new last book was Jane Eyre and I loved it =)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I'm suspect the most amazing things to me mean little to others, although PARAGLIDING SWISS ALPS sounds pretty freaking cool to most people!!!
Teach, Learn, Share
Well I can show you some awesome Kiwi music and some basic bass/regular guitar. Nobody seems to want to learn maths... but I like it and know a wee bit. I can juggle a little and start you off riding a unicycle =)
I'd like to learn French, some better cooking skills, how to surf! And anything else you feel you can share
