About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To try something new everyday.

ABOUT ME

Grew up in the beautiful beachside town of Mt Maunganui, New Zealand, but always had the travel bug. After finishing university/college I finally got the opportunity to spend a year in CT,USA as an au pair/nanny raising two crazy and hilarious girls.
Have just spent my final month travelling in the USA and now I have 9 weeks in Europe to go on new adventures and catch up with old friends.

PHILOSOPHY

To always be open to new experiences, even if they scare you, and to be accepting of the kindness strangers are willing to extend to you everywhere you go.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment I am only surfing and meeting amazing people, but once I return home I hope to pay it back by hosting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This has to be one of the most amazing websites ever!
Have met some of the most incredibly kind and generous people, and experience places in a way not possible without a local.
Couchsurfing reminded me how kind the people in this world are.
