My Name is Quinn, I am a Travelling Artist from New Zealand.
Open Minded with an Open Soul.
I Travel to learn and understand the world, people & cultures around me!
Culture inspires me deeply and is the main inspiration behind my artwork!
I appreciate the amazing people that are able to connect here from all corners of the world to help each other & show each other their own story, their home town, their culture!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To connect with other amazing people all over the Globe, to help each other, to share stories, to experience home towns like a local, to show and learn about cultures, food & language!

To Ultimately foster a love for unity, understanding of each other for greater peace across the world!

Interests

I've been riding bikes ever since I can remember and compete semi professionally in Downhill and Dirt Jump (Freestyle).

I'm also very excitable with snow and love getting up in the mountains on my board but if there's good waves I'm known to get out on the surfboard for a splash.

When the suns down and the adventures are put to rest I enjoy painting, putting together footage I've taken into edits/short films and making music (usually Drum & Bass or Hip Hop).

I come from an outdoors family background so I very much enjoy getting out in the hills or into the ocean.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Been able to give somebody else enough courage and motivation to chase their dream.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've learnt that you never judge a book by it's cover, you'll be surprised by the stories within.

That there is beauty in everyone and light in even the darkest of souls.

And the biggest one, everyone dies but not everyone lives.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach New Zealand culture, help around the house with chores, quality conversation with laughs included and create a tasty meal or two.
