Overview
About Me
**Have just arrived in NZ! Living in a van. Looking to connect/meet ♡ **
I'm a pretty laid back person. Being spontaneous and adventurous is good with me. Absolutely love to experience different cultures, see new places and meet like minded people!
Passionate about indiginous tribes, sustainable living and natural medicine.
I started traveling in December 2016. I really enjoy volunteering and using work away as well as couch surfing. The concept of them is something I'm really passionate about. We can all help one another to become more sustainable. Every person has talent. Some of the best experiences I've had has been through these two sites!
For money, I work as a Pregnancy Massage Therapist and love it! So rewarding to go through this journey with women. I am constantly studying. Currently doing an online course on Post Natal Ayurvedic Doula care. Next would like to do something with shamanic birthing rituals.
My dream is to one day settle in a thriving eco community, living self sufficiently!
Also got alotta love for music ♡
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I use couch surfing to meet people in the area I'm visiting, to hear about it and see it from the eyes of a local.
I'm really looking forward to giving back to the couch surfing community once I stop in a place to offer other travelers a place to stay! The generosity I have received has been immense.

Don't watch TV, but I do occasionally really enjoy documentaries!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
If I can only pick one... hitchhiking up the east coast of Australia solo
Teach, Learn, Share
I love crafts, so anything along the lines of crochet, beading, painting are all high on the list.
Or better yet... listening to someone making music! :D
What I Can Share with Hosts

Gardening! Really enjoy being outside.
If you have dog, I'd love to walk him/her!
If there are kids at the house I'll entertain them, I have done quite a bit of child care :)
I love to organise, so I can help you sort your wardrobe or cupboards. Happy to clean and tidy up too. Love a de-clutter!
