I'm a freelance artist and picture framer travelling around Europe for the next 3 months. I'm keen to meet some new people and experience a less touristy side of Europe.

I'm considerate and friendly and a very respectable couchsurfer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've travelled Europe before but I've only ever done tourist attractions. This time I want to meet some new people and experience want it's like being a local.

I also hope to make new friends that I can potentially host back in New Zealand.
