I was born in New Zealand, after my parents moved from Sri Lanka. I grew up in a city, but in the past few years have been living in a smaller town.

During the day I work as a psychologist in schools, and in the evenings and weekends I like spending time with friends cooking, playing music and going on outdoor adventures. I am really excited to be travelling out in this big wide world again!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The most important thing for me when travelling overseas is not going and seeing the ‘’main attractions’ but spending time with people.

I really enjoyed using Couchsurfing when I was travelling around Viet Nam a few years ago.

I am on Couchsurfing again to make new connections, share stories and experiences!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to cook and talk with people. I can share what knowledge I have of New Zealand, of psychology and music (e.g. guitar, bass violin).

I would love to learn more about the countries I am in and the lives of the people I am around. Simple as that!

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Samoa, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Viet Nam
