I am a musician and student leaving Canada on my first solo adventure, ready to explore what New Zealand and Australia have to offer! I will be finishing up my last semester of undergrad in Melbourne starting in February, and I hope to meet some some amazing folks throughout my backpacking tour of New Zealand.

I love finding new music, playing guitar, drums, singing, and am currently finding my way around the ivories. Love finding unique live music venues. Hiking, exploring, anything involving the outdoors. Becoming friends with strangers' dogs. I like plants. Trees.

I know the value in a clean, respectful roommate and I am always mindful of helping out in the kitchen and being a hassle free surfer!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing to meet like-minded, artistic, adventure-driven individuals who are open to new experiences! Would love to jam with fellow musicians or provide a free house concert if your heart so desires.

Music, Movies, and Books

Depends what mood I'm in. Been getting funky lately.

Love the Beatles. Almost any genre from the 60s/70s is of interest to me.

Red Hot Chili Peppers, Pink Floyd, Stevie Wonder, Arctic Monkeys, Radiohead, Sam Roberts, Fleetwood Mac, Sticky Fingers, Tame Impala, The Strokes, John Butler Trio, throw something new at me!

Rock, funk, alternative, soul, folk, old school hip hop.

I enjoy historical fiction, inspiring biographies, travel writing, all sorts. Just finished 'In A Sunburned Country' by Bill Bryson, twas quite enjoyable.
