About Me

A Kiwi but lived overseas most of the last 12 years.
Studied video in Karlsruhe in southern Germany, and even went back to live there afterwards.
Home is very different now, and my accent is no longer Kiwi! But working on that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Despite being back in my home town want to keep up with the good things about traveling, meeting new people and speaking different languages.

Interests

I never thought I would say I like the countryside but I volunteered on some farms last year and loved it!
I love to cook and always keen to learn new recipes.
I'm a filmmaker by profession but I've screwed up my eyes recently which has led to a lot of new experiences away from the screen - most recently beginners acrobatics.

Music, Movies, and Books

Fassbinder everything
Music.. listening to it, dancing to it. The last band I heard live were The Broken Heartbreakers.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Crossed the Atlantic on a freighter (as a passenger. So technically, I didn't "do" much to contribute to this)

Teach, Learn, Share

Just began making shapes with clay, and learning about pottery.. Weaving.. the old crafts. More fun than I imagined.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Love to cook, dance, chill, talk..
