Hey my name is Kieran and I am from New Zealand! Finished my bachelors degree in Information Systems (software and databases) and just enjoying some time in Europe before things get serious. I love doing handstands in epic places!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love exploring new places, hiking, just seeing what the world has to offer. Not only places but also cultures, traditions, games, and so on and couch surfing is the perfect way to achieve these goals!
Making friends across the world is the icing on the cake

Music, Movies, and Books

Almost everything, especially if it's fun to sing along to. Nothing more fun than trying to sing along to Led Zeppelin and completely failing.
I like movies that make me think, especially ones that bring different perspectives. Also movies that involve technology and artificial intelligence since it's partly my field of study.
My favourite book would have to be The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Love any books which take history and put it into a novel.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed Mt. Taranaki in NZ in my Adidas sneakers after my boots broke half way up
