Kia ora and thanks for visiting my profile!

My name is Eva as you can see at the top of my profile but I think it's just hard to start describing myself when you just see the line "ABOUT ME". It's not that there is nothing that I can say about me, it's just that I don't know how to start without a real question. I guess the easiest way is just ask me if there is anything you want to know about me.
Just some infos:
I'm 20 and in New Zealand since the middle of September. Since I arrived I have seen the hole Northland, I spended to much time in Auckland and I have worked for a bit more than a month as an au pair in Hamilton.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think Couchsurfing is a very good way to meet local people and experience the local life.
I have already traveled to several countries but I do not want to just visit the countries and see the typical tourist spots. I want to meet the people who live there and learn from other.
Also maybe I can get some special hints for some beautify hidden places or maybe just the smile or conversation with a friendly person.
The other reason is that I want so study in English after my year here so it would be nice to get the chance to improve my English with talking to other people (I found out it's quite hard to learn English here with all the German guys around ).
To be honest I have to say I'm also a low budget traveler, Couchsurfing makes me able to travel more!

Music, Movies, and Books

I really like movies but always when I have read a book and than saw the movie I always said the book was much better, so in my opinion you just have to take the time to read the book sometimes.
Especially in summer I like to just burn in the sun at the beach and list myself in a book. It's also very nice to spend some time with a book in front of a carmine in the winter time or just when it's raining.
At the moment I try to read the hobbit in english.
I have just finished some books from Sarah lark and I also like Judith Lennox and Nicolas Sparks My aunt works in a book shop so she always serves me with books.
(When I discovered the OP Shops here with all these books for just a coin it changed my life !)
I think I will never finish my reading list.
MOVIES: I like action and adventure movies but sometimes I prefer old movies like Pretty Women and Breakfast at Tiffany's.
MUSIC: Depends on my mood but Jack Johnson is always a good idea.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

AMAZING has a different meaning to different persons. Some people would say it's amazing to travel alone as a girl to the other side of the world. But when I arrived here I meet lots of other girls in the same situation so...
For me it's not important to just do amazing things it's important to share them with someone.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Right now it's unfortunately impossible for me to host anyone, as I'm backpacking and don't have any place to offer but if you let me stay at you place, I will let you stay at my place.
Now, I can just share my company some stories, a smile, good moments and I will help wherever I can.
