CURRENT MISSION

Having explored a good part of the world for 3 years I'm now parked in Berlin and after a few good years of " intensive networking" (partying) I'm the proud exhausted owner of an beautiful big underground Fashion Atelier, Bar, Event space, Kitchen and Private disco venue In Mitte called Fusion Factory!!

ABOUT ME

On the 12th May 2011 I started my 3 year adventure around the world... First stop was SE Asia for a month then the US, Canada and onward to Europe!!!
I an an enthusiastic, entreprenurial, extrovert with a passion for people, fashion and food ! I had my own fashion label in NZ for nearly 10 years before deciding it was high time to explored the world in search of fortune, fame love and experience...
I am particularly sociable, relatively laid back and often completely ridiculous when and if the occasion arrises ( which it seems to fairly regularly! )
I love to cook and entertain. I love meeting new people and I'm desperate to experience the world and have been away from NZ for nearly 5 years. I've now been married to my delightful Norwegian husband here in Berlin for 3 years.Sooo now I know that I can stay it is time to put down at least some tentative roots and get back to working with my passions for cooking and tailoring fashion!

PHILOSOPHY

DO IT ! ( eat sleep dance shop...repeat)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have always been a huge fan of travellers and have hosted many on my own accord. I am fascinated by culture and diversity and have amazing friends dotted about the world and continue to interact with them and plan trips and holidays in Berlin and other parts of Europe.
I find it hugely gratifying when you reconnect with friends you met for a day to friends you lived with for some months and also being a contact and host to the multitude of friends of friends traveling my way !

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We shall start at the very beginning !
Have had a few wonderful visitors and can only hope to meet a myriad of wonderful hosts!

Interests

I'm exceptionally good a drinking and seldom get shown up on a dance floor. I have spent many years as a tailor/designer/euntrpreneur so can stitch together anything that takes the fancy. I love cooking and entertaining and I'm finally combining all these passions in a very ambitious event space where everything is possible!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There are too many wild and wonderful experiences to choose just one but given half a chance and the equivalent in vodka I will tell tales of my adventures until you can bare it no more!

Teach, Learn, Share

Would love to Learn languages ! (Update... having spent the last two months in Montreal I have been studying French everyday and I must admit I"m starting to get the hang of it !!!
I'm now in Germany for over a year and think it about time I really got stuck into learning Deutsch although it is far to easy to get by without in this massive melting pot of culture and craziness.
Would happily run your business and or cook or stitch till my hearts content.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My food, my house, my crazy anecdotes and perhaps my husband if your lucky lol!
