About Me

Hello.

I left my job a couple of years ago in search of a better pace of life. London is a beautiful city but a big corporate job in a big busy city, takes it out of you. I travelled Latin America for 9 months and then Australia for another 9, living in a campervan with my girlfriend.

We're now moving to New Zealand and plan to establish some roots and meet some good people. We fly to Wellington on the 5th November and would love to meet and stay with a few people, whilst we get to know the area and find a place to live. I'm a photographer and Nicole is incredible with food. So we can offer some tasty eats (veggie) in exchange for a place to stay and a warm greeting.

We're looking to find jobs and get a market stall on a Saturday to sell some good eats and meet folk. Even if you can't host us, please get in touch and let us know if you'd like to meet up. Being new to the country, we'd love to meet people! We're good before, but even better value after a glass of wine!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To share the love

Interests

I love to document the great outdoors. In love with nature and try and capture it's best bits on a camera, whether that's images or film. All I liked for 20 years was sport, so there's still a lot of love there but a gammy knee means I can only surf and swim. But I've never dropped a catch.
