Howdy!!! My name is Maddy and I'm currently studying to be a music teacher. While I normally attend university in Texas, I'm currently on exchange in Wellington and I'm eager to experience all that New Zealand has to offer. I come with a load of bad puns and fun stories and love connecting with new people.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

There's no better way to meet new people than to be welcomed into a home-even if that means there's only couch space or the equivalent available. I'm interested in deviating from the backpacker culture in hostels to experience genuine New Zealand during my time here.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can teach you how to read music, music theory, the bassoon if you have one of those sitting around, the basics of trumpet, clarinet, and flute.
I want to learn Spanish, how to knit, how to sew, how to cook pretty much anything, wrap crystals, gardening skills, how to stand on my head, the guitar-I'm open to many things!
Happy to share an open mind, happy spirit, and good times. :-)
