About Me

24 yo backpacker from France currently in New Zealand on a working holiday visa for about 1 year.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because after travelling for over a month in my own car, I didn't really meet any kiwis. This has to change !

Interests

Nature is one of the main reason why I came to NZ. For all those beautiful landscape, with rivers, lakes, glaciers and mountains.
I love extreme sports. Some call me an adrenaline junkie. I did a lot of skiing back in France, and some mountain biking.
I want to try pretty much everything New Zealand has to offer. Already done some Zorbing, Rafting (this 7m high waterfall in Rotorua), Sandboarding, and it was awesome !
Of course I do a lot of hiking, cause it's the best way to see beautiful places.

Music, Movies, and Books

Basically any kind of music, except maybe some rap/r'n'b and some metal, but I'm still pretty open-minded.
I like all kind of movies as well, except maybe for some "girly stuff".
I really loved :
The Shawshank Redemption,
The Green Mile,
Good Will Hunting,
Gran Torino,
Inception...

I don't read that much, but when I do it's mostly Sci-Fi or Fantasy. (some Terry Pratchett for example)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, I've tried this Nevis Bungy in Queenstown, and it was pretty amazing. I'm probably gonna do it again when I go back there !

What I Can Share with Hosts

Well we can share some of our respective culture. I could teach you a bit of french.
Also, if you got some computer problems, I could maybe help you ;)
I'm not that good with cooking (could still try some french recipes), but I can bring the beers if you want !
