Hey I am Mel, born and raised in New Zealand I am proud to call NZ home.
I love to travel, be in the water, run, spend time with friends, met new people, challenge myself and stay fit and healthy.
I have traveled to 54 countries, 6 continents and have so much more I would like to see. I have been based in New Zealand up until moving to London nearly 3 years ago.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I have joined couch surfers on the recommendation of many of my friends who have had awesome experiences. Often I am solo traveling and couch surfers provides an awesome forum to join with others to share the experience.

音乐、电影和书籍

Love a variety of music from country to dub step, to reggae. My lonely planet stack of books just keeps growing. I am a sucker for a chick flick and will often be caught crying mid film.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I won a trip to Los Angeles from New Zealand when I was 16 years old, this is when the wanderlust was born!

教，学，和分享

I am interested to learn from others their perspectives and viewpoints on world issue and travel is a wonderful way in which to do so. I can teach you about kiwi culture, words and customs including 'jandals' 'pavlova' 'jerseys', what a hungi is and how good a kiwi bbq is after a long surf!

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I am a fun loving upbeat personality to be around. I enjoy cooking especially deserts. I can teach you about my world (if you are interested) including about living though a 6.4 magnitude earthquake that destroyed my home and the life that I knew, the resilience upheld and the journey to starting over.
