ABOUT ME

Hey I'm Nathan, a 28 year old guy from a small south island town. I have hosted a lot of couchs surfers over the years and really enjoy getting to know people from all walks of life. Now i think i might try the other side of couchsurfing and try staying with some of the cool couch surfing hosts out there.

If you want to meet up then let me know. I'm freindly enough and love swapping stories over a beer. I've grown to love the cs spirit and now actively encourage people to join and really be part of the community.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't stress about the small things .... or anything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By hosting, meet ups and surfing. I feel like i can easily mix with someone from the cs community as we all have a great philosophy in life.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted and have met some awesome people who ive gotten on with really well. I have also met some great friends through meet ups and adored the times i have surfed. I love meeting new people. I once had 6 Couchsurfers all staying. It may not have been the most comforatable time but we all had fun swaping stories over a few drinks.

Interests

Generally everything is interesting. I do enjoy hanging out and having some beers and have had tons of fun hosting couchsurfers. Always willing to give most things a go. I play squash a lot and love exercise in my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

everybody has something to teach me. I like to think i can teach people how to relax a bit and not stress. Example on the way to drop off these two german girls to their bus i ran out of petrol. They started panicking but i just got some petrol i had luckily stored in the car and filled up. No harm done.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer conversation and will bring some beers or wines or coffees so we can talk over a nice drink. I also love to help out wherever i can and be involved in the life of friends and locals.
