Having fiinished my study at University of Otago and have been working as a tour guide around beautiful New Zealand to fund my travels. Love the outdoors and adventures, running and biking etc. Been all around NZ and seen my own backyard, now it is time to see yours!! Currently just explored parts of South East Asia with my girlfriend for the better part of a year...working, volunteering and traveling. Recently arrived home and making the most of the epic NZ summer! Can't miss it

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a host: To meet up with fellow travelers and give them a place to crash for a while, as I have done during my adventures overseas. Its cool meeting people so I can show them a locals perspective of New Zealand

As a surfer: To meet some awesome people and get a locals perspective of the area...the best way. Always keen to hear good stories and share a few with you too (same goes for food)!

Interests

Cooking, Running, Mountain Biking, Swimming, and anything outdoors is good fun. Tramping and Hiking and Camping as well. I do like being out on the water too, snorkeling and fishing etc. Business and entrepreneurship is up my alley as well. So is anything food related, I love a bit of good cooking and trying out new recipes and foods

Music, Movies, and Books

Pretty much anything. A bit of Jack Johnson or some good old chill NZ Six60 and I am a happy man. Same applies for books, cant go wrong with a good biography though, they always give you some sweet ideas

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelled around South East Asia for a year and didn't hire a motorbike once! That is commitment.

Teach, Learn, Share

Can show you the brand new world-class Mountain Biking park in Waitangi (just up the road), absolutely awesome place. Have a couple spare bikes too, so get in touch if you like riding. Also, please check out the 'Home' section for more.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am friendly, very easy going and laid back. I also love learning all your new languages! Happy to explore places ourselves if you don't have time to show us around...no worries! Giving things a go and trying out all types of new food is choice!
