ABOUT ME

Hey!
I'm Michelle, I'm currently doing my Masters at the University of Canterbury in Christchurch, NZ.
I love to travel, and want to see the world. I want to experience new cultures and learn as much as I can.

PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing I have done was bike down "Death road" / "The worlds most dangerous road" in Bolivia

Teach, Learn, Share

If you're travelling around NZ, try see all of it!- the North Island has a lot of small towns, whereas the South Island has more open country. A lot of travellers buy a camper van and drive around, and then sell it to different travellers again before they leave- this seems to work quite well!!

If you're travelling around NZ on a budget try www.nakedbus.com. It's a great cheap bus service- the earlier you book, the cheaper it will be. Feel free to add my reference number: nbqfai
On all the bus trips, there's at least one $1 seat, which is great if you get in first!
Also try Intercity coachlines- they go pretty much anywhere!
