CURRENT MISSION

Hiking the Te Araroa, New Zealand from North to South

ABOUT ME

There's so much see and do in one lifetime! I love a good adventure, sea kayaking, climbing mountains, snowboarding, surfing, animals, trying new foods and meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

To be happy, and to spread my abundant happiness. Appreciating the little things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment, I am hiking in New Zealand, so I can only offer my appreciation to hospitable people, and one day I will own a couch of my own.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Met a few great people couchsurfing, very much enjoyed their company, and even spent christmas with a few.
Also some great experiences WWOOFing, including 4 months on a dairy farm on Okinawa.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent 3 months cycling through Patagonia, worked in Japanese ski resorts, hitchhiked in Mongolia. Once I was stranded on a Greek island without water while kayaking, and sucked the moisture out of a cucumber.
