I am travelling NZ by bike and using couch surfing, warm showers, camping and backpackers along my journey.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am using couch surfing as a way to travel round NZ meeting people and probably trying to avoid the rain!!

Interests

I studied fine art to degree level at an art school in South london. I worked in art schools teaching metal work and sculpture to students.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Oh so many good things, but one of the best things I have seen is the grand canyon.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love sharing ideas with people and helping in any way I can to help people realise their dreams (normally in making things, I'm pretty handy!)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Great conversation, help around the house: fixing or painting things. I'm also a good cook and baker so very happy to cook.
