Hi there! My name is Katie, I'm a 29 year old Masters student living in Auckland, New Zealand. I love meeting new people and experiencing new things, and sharing good food and drink.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I want to meet new people and make friends!

I'm planning a holiday to Japan and Korea in April - I actually lived in Japan for about a year, but I never really progressed my Japanese ability because I was always too afraid to try...this time I'd like to practice my Japanese with native speakers!

As for Korea, I've never been before, and I'm very excited to go for the first time. I'd love to meet someone who could introduce me to the place!

日本人ホスト-- こんにちは! :) 私は以前日本に住んでいたから, 返すことを楽しみにしています. 日本が大好きです!

言語スキルが下手ですけど, 今回はもっと話すこと頑張ります!

한국인 호스트 - 안녕하세요! 사실은, 나는 한국어를 전혀 할 수 없다, 하나 나는 배우는 것을 좋아한다.

나는 한국에서 새로운 친구를 사귈 수 있기를 바랍니다 :)

One more thing - I plan to travel with a friend of mine, but she prefers to stay in hotels, whereas I really like to get out and meet the locals. She's lovely though, her name is Hannah and I've included some photos of the two of us in my profile. If the timing works out, perhaps we could all hang out together in the city!

Looking forward to meeting awesome friendly hosts!

Katie :)

Músicas, Filmes e Livros

I love many different kinds of music - lately I've been listening to Alt J and Chet Faker, but if I go out for karaoke, it's pop songs all the way!

I love a good scary movie - something slow moving and thoughtful, without too much blood, but still chilling. The Babadook, The Exorcist, It Follows, Rosemary's Baby, A Tale of Two Sisters and Dark Water are some of my favourites.

As for books, I have to confess I love a bit of young adult fiction, especially John Green, but recently I've also been getting into Gabriel Garcia Marquez, whose work is just beautiful.

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

I'm happy to give a few English lessons to any host who wants to learn :)

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões
