About Me

***SEARCHING FOR PAYING FLATMATES/LONG STAYERS****
My flatmate and I are looking to fill a sleepout that sleeps 2 ($400 per week), as well as a room in our house ($240 per week). We are looking for people to stay for at least 2 months. I ended up finding an awesome flat from a couchsurfer, and wanted to share the love! So if you're staying around Auckland, let us know! Check out the photos in the couch folder.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kia ora! I'm a energetic, happy (ex) traveller with an unquenchable thirst for adventure and new experiences! I enjoy slow travel and have volunteered, workawayed and worked through Europe for 2016/17 🌍🌞🏄

My travels have taken me from the foothills of Kyrgyzstan, the dry cliffs of the French Riveria, to the green streets of Sweden, and along the way it has always been people who have made the journey what it has.

Time for me to pay back to the Couchsurfer community, for all of my beautiful hosts that shared their homes and culture with me along the way ♥️ me and my flatmate Sam are keen travellers and love talking about the world, science, philosophy, meditation and yoga 🌌 we're also keen adventurers and if you're lucky we will take you to our favourite spots around Auckland!

If you like music I've been playing guitar and singing for a while - let's have a jam :-)

Et si vous êtes Français (ou Suisse!) il faut qu'on fasse connaissance! La France me manque beaucoup et bien sûr ses belles gens et plàts aussi . ❤

If you feel like an adventure, feel free to join the wavelength 〰〰〰

Special mention: I love rock climbing so I'm always looking for buddies or people who want to give it a try! 🏔
