I'm an active, fun loving individual. I enjoy going out for drinks to bars and a big daytime adventures as much as sitting in a sunny field with a good book. I'm very keen to try new things!

Since graduating from uni I've wanted to go travelling. I have finally saved up and worked at my company long enough to get a sabbatical and get a good start on my list of countries to see! New Zealand being top of the list because it is look so damn beautiful!

I'm looking for great adventures, and to meet some fun loving and respectful people, who will hopefully become amazing friends.

Unfortunately because of past experiences, to make things clear I am NOT on here for anything more than platonic, respectful friendships with hosts and meet ups, so please do not contact me if you hope for anything more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I will be travelling alone around New Zealand through November and the beginning of December 2017 and have a jump on and off bus pass which will take me from Auckland to Christchurch. I really want to spend some of my time with locals, going on outdoor adventures, paying sports, helping out and really getting to know the best bits of the country!

Interests

As you can see I have a lot of interests, a beginner/OK at many and master of none! I really like an adventure and will try lots of new things. While I'm in NZ I would love to go skydiving and get on the water on something (board, boat or kayak I don't mind).

Music, Movies, and Books

I like all sorts of music including pop, indie, rock, jazz and classical. Will almost always be in the middle of reading a Terry Pratchett book and like a good action and comedy movie.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Helped children in a remote village learn how to stay fit and healthy as part of a volunteering week which funded a bridge across a dangerous river.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd love for us to go on adventures together, maybe play some sport or I could show you my cooking skills. And very happy to help out where I can.
