Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I spent a lot of time on peoples couches in London, South Africa and friends in Az, so while I probably dont travel as much now, I can give something back. I do believe couch surfing is a great concept. When you travel to a foreign land, the best experience you can have is with the natives!!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Back in my day we called it dossing, I lived for 3 months either on a couch, behind a couch on the floor, or a spare bed if one was available. In London their was a heirachy system, the longer your were their the more senior you were. The rules were simple, dossers have no rights but a senior dosser had the pick of the bed ahead of any junior dossers. South Africa during the 1995 worlcup was staying with friends parents, a bit flash.
Interests
I love being a Kiwi with all the things that Chch offers. I like to keep fit through the odd run bike, mtbike, kayak. Socialy when I'm out, I love a good night out socialising. I love beer - of course & NZ wine Pinot Noir & Sav Blanc
