Hey, I'm Pierce !

I come from a small surf town on the east coast of the north island in New Zealand.

I'm a happy, young easy going kind of guy and always up for an adventure !

Last year I made my first backpacking trip through Europe and got the travel bug, now I have started another adventure... To backpack through the Americas !

I love to travel and new people, tasting different cuisines, hike, surf, snowboard.. Most things outdoors !

I am also a qualified aluminium joiner and have worked with glass, windows and doors for 6 years so can help with some small issues that you may have :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I got recommended couch surfing by a fellow traveller and now good friend, as you get to experience the everyday life and culture of your hosts. And also get good local knowledge and possible hiking buddy's :)
