ABOUT ME
Medical doctor originally from New Zealand, living in Australia.
My interests include, learning languages, history, diving, running, and swimming. Im also getting into spearfishing and playing the guitar.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Best way to exchange cultural knowledge and connect the world.
Interests
I love listening to music all the time. Great food and company make the finishing touch. I usually spend my downtime meeting up with friends, going to parties, swimming or gyming, going hiking in the forest. Was a craft brewer before I left too!
Music, Movies, and Books
I literally listen to every type of music - vague I know, but literally cover probably every genre in a week, except probably Punk (but thats not an absolute contraindication :). I especially like listening to music in other languages, and nostalgic tunes like 90s pop and Disney classics :D
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
-In Nepal, when I stepped off our canoe on the banks of a river, I'm pretty sure a tiger, just hidden in the bushes, ran away from us. I was a few metres away!
Teach, Learn, Share
As history is a hobby of mine, I can teach you loads about the history of New Zealand, the native Māori people, the flora and fauna of this island. Obviously I love teaching languages as well, and finally, I could even teach some other skills I've acquired, like Cerroc dancing. Or beer brewing!
