I'm from New Zealand (not Australia) & I wasn't involved in the Lord of the Rings films. I enjoy interesting experiences and adventuring (climbing, biking, white water, snow sports). I try to explore the outdoors wherever I go. I like being immersed in different cultures and eating where the locals eat.

I fix old aircraft for a living.

I'm friendly, polite, enjoy deep discussion and lighthearted joking :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To make the most of travel and meet interesting people along the way. To get a better and more genuine experience of the location & hopefully pay it forward in future.
