I'm a Kiwi (New Zealand) travelling in the world unplanned. I grew up on a farm and have an Agricultural Science degree but now am looking for new directions. I love animals, hiking/trekking, exploring new places and meeting local people as well as travelers.

I've been travelling for 18 months (as at March 2018) .... 1 month is South Americ, many between Mexico and Guatemala, 1 month in the US, 4 in the Quebec State, 3 in Sweden and arrived in España late February.

I have a preference for the travel style of immersing into a place and then seeing the local sights, not just ticking the boxes (as I have time to travel in this way). I do many workaways as I go and couchsurf to meet locals and enjoy cool untouristy spots, get local information and and also like to see some significant attractions.

My plan is to be Spain until the mid May and am walking the Camino de Santiago April/May.
After that who knows where the flow will take me!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To see the culture/normal life not just the tourist spots =)
