******ATTENTION TRAVELERS*****

Thank you for your messages but I am not currently able to host guests as I am traveling the globe, like you! Please hold back from sending requests as my reply rate is getting really low and I don't want that to reflect badly on my profile.

Thanks a lot!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Trading local wisdom for indulgent conversation and weather appropriate drinks.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Last summer we had six French guys looking for a place to 'stop over' while they mapped out the next leg of their New Zealand adventure. Lucky for them we had a big house, because they wound up staying for with us for six weeks. It was absolutely excellent!

Interests

Another cliche kid- `Art, Music and Culture', that's what we all say right? Touch on these and you've probably got a winner, but if in doubt mention Girl Rock or something controversial, that'll get the convo flowing. I'm also a major fan of hot drinks, cold drinks, psychics, sharks and Microsoft Paint.

Music, Movies, and Books

I think I have 'time travellers taste'- I love Rock n' Roll/Bluegrass/Grunge/Jazz equally, but have a real sweet spot for Big Bands.

Special mention for homegrown talent- Artisan Guns, Males, Street Chant, Connan Mockasin, The Brunettes, Tono And The Finance Company, Unknown Mortal Orchestra and 3Ds. New Zealand is small, but GOD we have some good music.

In other realms- Jawbreaker, 200 Cigarettes, Rocky Horror Picture Show, Gregg Araki, Irvine Welsh, Bukowski, Angela Carter... Short stories... Graphic Novels... Calvin and Hobbes... Biographies.... aaaaannnnddddd anything Science Fiction.

Voilà !
