Hi I am Kane from New Zealand, now based in Auckland, of mixed heritage. I finished a year long Africa trip by bus a few years ago and used Cs there 🐅🐆, was such a fun trip. Now doing a "Pacific Ring" trip, going to SEA, Japan, and Pacific USA but somehow landed work in Vietnam and stuck there for a bit. Now back in NZ!

Studied Philosophy in uni and love talking about everything. Now starting a new career.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am easy going and think this is a great way to learn local culture, share culinary techniques, and integrate myself in a community for the few days I stay.

Interests

I enjoy exercise and like do to pushups pullsups and stretches to keep in shape. If you have a piano I could practice too, they come few and far.

My absolute favourite activity is talking nonsense with friends over a drink.
