Overview
About Me
Born in New Zealand, moved to Australia to finish high school, and jumped across the world to live in Europe on a second citizenship status. Four years later saw me back home in the Antipodes to see family and old friends. 2017 brings me back to Europe...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To quench my thirst for meeting amazing, varied people who can teach me about myself—and life—whilst on my travels.
Interests
- literature
- photography

Music, Movies, and Books
I keep an open and welcoming mind for all three, with constant variations on favourites; currently though, Placebo, Talk Talk and Grant Green are on heavy iPod rotation, W. Somerset Maugham is stacked on the bookshelf and films from Linklater, Lynch and Kurosawa flicker on the big screen.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Moved to the UK by myself with one bag on my person; completed a day hike with two friends in the middle of the Atlas Mountains in Morroco; three-month sail within the Mediterranean Sea.
Teach, Learn, Share
I have been an official Apple hardware and software teacher/tutor with professional certification in audio editing application Logic Pro X, and video editing application Final Cut Pro X; I'm always happy to provide some insight, information and tuition on anything Apple in trade for a couch!
What I Can Share with Hosts
Cleanliness, a drink, a high-pitched laugh and genuine, interesting conversation.
