Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
We have a background in Science and Māori Language revitalisation. Working in the area of media and water harvesting. We live right next to the river in Taipa and a 5 minute walk to a great swimming beach. I wouldnt swim in Winter thought its tooo cold.
Its also good to learn to surf...when the waves are right. If you're here in the winter you will need a wetsuit.
If you want to help out in the garden you are welcome to make your self at home :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
surfed alot of couches but only those of people I know .... or places I've crashed at. Happy to host people who would like to get to know the far north of Aotearoa, New Zealand.
