Hello!
I've been teaching English in Japan for the past two years. Now I'm leaving to travel around New Zealand with my Swedish partner in crime!
I'm originally from New York.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet local New Zealanders and hang out.

Interests

I like reading, video games, getting drunk and ranting in bad Japanese.

• dining
• cooking

Music, Movies, and Books

I like a pretty wide range of music. Sometimes I'm like in a 60's pop mood, sometimes I play only David Bowie for days, or I listen to depressing trip hop, and sometimes I listen to Taylor Swift. I have no idea.

I like sci-fi and fantasy, which applies to books and movies. I like Neil Gaiman, Clive Barker and Terry Pratchett.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I climbed Mt. Fuji over the summer?
