CURRENT MISSION?

Probably trying to find that little key that opens my hostel locker. It's surprisingly elusive.

ABOUT ME

I love to laugh and learn new things. I like direction and purpose but am happy to take my time getting there. I love culture, food, travel and wine. One at a time is great, all at once is perfection.

I like... in no particular order.... the outdoors, wine, dancing, experiencing a different culture, anything made with yoghurt, the smell of my horse, cold showers in hot weather, my actual horse, wine, craft beer, perfect background music, great conversation that makes me think about life, friends, the sun on my skin, wine and sometimes tequila ... okay, always tequila. ;-)

PHILOSOPHY

I love the freedom of anonymity that comes with traveling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I haven't done too much to be honest. Surfed a few couches, meet a few people. If you ever want to know anything about NZ, send me a message.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The overall concept is great. I prefer to meet/be hosted by girls, but if friendship is the first thing on your mind then I am happy to meet boys too. I loved being taken in at midnight with a last minute couch request in west Austria. Life savers!!

Music, Movies, and Books

Open minded. Anything goes. Nothing is better than a good book and they often influence my travels. I went to China and Russia specifically because of books that I loved.

First movies I thought to mention: Lucky Number Slevin. City of God. Seven Psychopaths. Aladdin. The Intouchables.

NZ Music - Yomi Zouma, Fat Freddy's Drop, Broods, Black Seeds.
