Why hello! I'm Kim and I hail from New Zealand. About to set out on an overdue adventure across the world and experience life on the other side.

I hope to tramp across Europe and see some of the most beautiful landscapes known to mankind! Fully immersed in the environment and meeting the true locals!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

About to set out across the UK and Europe for the next few years! No plans, no destinations, and completely open to ideas and new adventures! Hoping to meet some pretty cool people along the way (such as you?) and experience life upside down in the northern hemisphere!

Interests

Sport, namely rugby. I will be touring around to watch the mighty All Blacks during the World Cup and have organised zero accommodation haha. If you see someone hunched under a bridge, it'll probably be me..

Further interests include painting, animals, conservation, having a beer, sitting in the sun (those two in unison is perfect), walking aimlessly (often for hours on end), exploring new areas!

Music, Movies, and Books

Hootie and the Blowfish (music), Good Will Hunting (movie), and Touching the Void (book). But I'm pretty easy going!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hiked across Switzerland. Starting in Chamonix, France, I walked roughly 500km and climbed 14 passes before crossing the border into Liechtenstein some 27 days later. I camped the whole way and loved every second of it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Laughter, lame jokes and a clean kitchen.
