Currently on a 6 month backpacking trip through New Zealand, Australia, Indonesia, SE Asia and Japan
When at home...In the summer you'll catch me slipping out the door with my camping/hiking gear in tow at every chance I get.
I'm a bicycle commuter and a novice long distance cyclist, longboarder, snow shoe guide and flat water canoe instructor.
I live to cook and eat whole/healthy foods.
I enjoy being outside as often as I can, making genuine connections with people and having good laughs.

I've hosted many surfers but unfortunately my roommate got all the reviews! Search *Courtney Redden* to view our reviews

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
