About Me

Twice in my life, I've quit my job and booked a one way ticket overseas.

I enjoy meeting others from different parts of the world and learning about their culture and history.

I'm a born and bred Kiwi who's lived in Nelson, Dunedin, Wellington, London and Montreal and am now based in Auckland.

I'm an accountant by trade, but not like any accountant you've ever met. I love the outdoors, a social beer/wine (but not a party animal), trying new foods, and am always up for discovering my next passion (the most recent being road biking and bouldering).

I'm currently learning Spanish

I'm quiet, tidy, and easy going.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm a keen traveller and when I'm not overseas, it's nice to host/meet with other travelers to keep my wanderlust alive. Hosting people often brings out energy to go out and explore parts of my own surroundings.
I feel that genuine interactions are the most memorable parts of travelling.
