About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To keep on learning, but out in the real world instead of the mustry, dry confines of university life

ABOUT ME

I'm currently overseas on a university exchange studying for Masters in European and International Law. This reflects my interest in relations between differing people and cultures. It also makes me sound stuffy and rather smart, neither of which are really true. I'm from NZ orginally, but my mother is Australian so I have a little international blood in me. Antipodians are known for their wanderlust and I am no exception: brought up on a steady diet of crazy travel adventure stories from my parents youth, I'm keen to get out and see the world

PHILOSOPHY

I want to get out and meet people, exhange thoughts, perceptions, opinions, arguements, stances, virtually anything that expands a brain that comes from a relativly isolated island nation

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Help international exchanges of information. Staying in a city and seeing the sights only gives a surface level understanding of the people who inhabit it. Get under it, learn something unique and new - something that will give a better impression of the people and place.
