Hey! My name is Freya - Nice to meet you!

Travelling from Bristol, UK across Central Asia.
Back home to New Zealand for the summer 💕

Trying to see the world! ❤️

I love to meet new people on CS and have met some of my best friends though here! I am unable to host for now as I don't stay in one place for very long but I would love to meet up with you or stay with you. I can also help out with advice for travelling around NZ!

I LOVE to travel and want to visit every country in the world! My favorite thing about travelling is meeting so many amazing people from all over the world and learning about different cultures.

Looking forward to meeting ya!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There is nothing more valuable then local insight and I would love to learn more about where you call home and in turn, teach you about mine :) I have had so many great experiences with CS meeting new people, being hosted and showing people around where I'm living in return and can't wait for more ^-^

Interests

TRAVEL.
Exploring new places.

English teaching/teaching anything. TEFL certified and I love to teach, especially volunteering.

Learning a new language - Japanese at the moment! I will always try to learn a new language and even though I'm not very good at it I always manage to get a few laughs out of people when I try :P

Foods, especially trying new food. I love Asian food mostly and it's the only thing I can cook half decent! If you know any nice places to eat then please let me know and I will be eternally grateful!

Diving. I have my PADI and would like to get my advanced when my wallet will allow it! I love how peaceful it is when you are underwater and I love learning about all the different marine life.

Animals and nature., especially walking and trekking. I love to take small bush walks around NZ and whenever I am travelling. Anything to do with animals or conservation I love as well!

Anything new! Most of all I love to learn about new places and get out and explore. There is nothing more amazing then being in a new country and being able to learn and take adventures ^_^

Music, Movies, and Books

Travel related!
Fav movie - Lost in translation (I love Bill Murray)
Fav book - Memoirs of a Geisha or anything by Lonely Planet. I love the ones where it's like 1000 greatest adventures/experiences/sights and when I get bored I just flick through them and start planning my next adventure!
Music- Changes all the time, I like anything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One?! Cmon that's not fair. I don't know about amazing but the bravest thing I have ever done was to make the decision to make travel my main goal in life. This has lead to may amazing things, swimming with sharks, climbing active volcanoes, jungle trekking..

Teach, Learn, Share

I would say that I am a pretty experienced traveller and used to work as a travel agent so I can help you with travel stuff.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My boundless enthusiasm, energy, friendship and eternal gratefulness! I can help you to practice English, help with social media stuff, entertain your cats.. seriously I will do my best to help you out in return for letting me use your couch/bed and of course you will be welcome to stay with me when i return home, whenever that may be :)
