Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Keen to couch surf and would welcome couch surfers

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have been hosting for many years now after couchsurfing once as travellers. We enjoy getting to know people from all nations and showing them some kiwi hospitality.

Interests

I love hiking, camping and tramping. I feel at home in the water, however cold! I have snow skiied since I was little and love the wind blowing in my face.
I try to understand people, especially those who have a hard time in life, and I love seeing people encouraged and strengthened to live more fulfilling lives.
