I used to be the number 1 host in Auckland during 2016-2020 at my place on Waiheke island. Ive hosted over 300 people at my home there over the years. After Covid things changed a bit and i haven’t properly hosted since then, for the past couple years I’ve been living in Wanaka and decided to start hosting again.

I found the most important thing to achieve happiness is to help other people and approach the world with a compassionate and loving attitude.

I found so much joy in sharing my place on Waiheke island. I enjoy good food, wine, music and being outdoors.

I spend my time trying to create and understand. I love cooking, making music and building things. I can talk for hours about psychology, spirituality/religion and politics.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Couch Surfing is a great way to share joy without the burden of placing a monetary value on the experience. Generosity and love is what encourages me to share my home with people, and so far every guest that has stayed with me has shown me the same in return.

Interessen

My passions are playing guitar, skiing, rock climbing and crafting handmade guitars. I also love going to festivals, dancing and just in general socialising. I'm interested in everything religion, philosophy/psychology and politics but I also don’t really hold too strong opinions in those topics.
