ABOUT ME

Why hello there. I hope you are very well indeed. I hail from the land of New Zealand, but I left just over a year ago to finish my design degree in Madrid, on one of those university exchanges. Away I went, and away I stayed. The travel bug got me bad, and now I'm venturing all over the show, trying to get as much in before my flight sends me home in December.

I think couch surfing is a truly wonderful thing, and have met some glorious people through it. It's been pretty party. I do love to party but I also just really enjoy hanging out with new people (of course) and living up a new culture and country. I'm from a family of 8 (6 kids), right in the middle I am, they're all pretty cool, and we've spent much time traveling right around New Zealand, tramping etc, it's a sweet place, I want to see more things! I promise to be a very respectful guest to whoever I stay with, and would love to go explore a city with you, party, cook/eat food, just hang out, listen to music, etc.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Growing up in New Zealand has been glorious, Wellington is wonderful, and Otago has been heeeeeeaps of fun, I spent the summer of 2010-11 in Melbourne working, it's hip hip, have been to south east asia three times, last year for a month partly by myself, partly with a friend - did some sweet english teaching and met heaps of cool people and saw lots of cool things. And now Europe! It's been crazy being away from home for so long, as I'm such a family person, but such a wonderful experience.
