About Me

The beach is my home.
I live at Piha, NZ but work on assignments often far from home. So travel often!

Currently in Europe for a few months travelling and photo taking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Helping like minded travelers get an inside look to New Zealand and our culture...there are lots of hidden secrets in NZ and I love to host when i'm home!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have spent lots of nights on friends couches/fold out beds all around New Zealand and Australia... Couch surfed for 3 months in America around 70 nights. It was great meeting all sorts of different people and I have been lucky enough to be able to return the favour back here in New Zealand hosting a few people here and there.

Also great to meet people while travelling away from home.

Interests

Surfing, Hiking, and Photography... and jumping off high things into rivers/lakes/oceans... Meeting new and passionate people is always great too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I walked from Piha to Muriwai up the West Coast of Auckland bare foot (3 days / 2 nights)

Teach, Learn, Share

NZ has thousands of hidden waterfalls and high natural jumps into rivers and lakes all around the county.... best thing to do when the waves are flat....
Best free fun in NZ! I know a few spots!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm friendly and always keen to have a laugh. I enjoy the outdoors and exploring.
