PHILOSOPHY
Love life & live it well...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing feels like the way I've always loved to travel... meeting people, finding our commonalities, exchanging ideas, enjoying the who each of us is, and sharing delightful experiences.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My/our first couch surfing experience in Kaitaia was fabulous. Veda and her family were generous hosts and treated us like family. Birthdays, BBQ's and exploring.
Friends for life!
