ABOUT ME
I like to make the most of life and have therefore traveled a far bit and had a few different careers. My passions are the environment, nature, and adventure sports.
It is great to meet new people and hear their story.
PHILOSOPHY
Make the most of everything
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Showed one surfer around Christchurch, and went to a CS gathering in San Diego. Both of which were great.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Met up with one surfer for a few drinks and had a great time. Heard about it from a helpful Polish/American whilst in Poland. Have been non-CS hosting friends-of-friends for years.
Interests
Have been into quite a few adventure sports but lately I have been concentrating more on environmental/self-sufficiency. I have recently turned my hobby into my job and become an organic grower/gardener, which is great!
Love finding wild food and anything to do with the outdoors - kitesurfing, fishing, sailing, tramping/hiking, horse riding.....oh and a bit of culture is always nice.
