CURRENT MISSION

having fun and meeting wonderful people around the world

ABOUT ME

Kia ora! I'm Sarah. I have just got back to New Zealand after a year of living in France and Mexico and travelling in between! I am: a talker, a listener, a lover of good food and drink, a reader, an observer, an appreciator of beautiful things, a wanderer, a climate activist, a vegetarian, a film lover, an animal person, 90s child (my favourite decade) an explorer, a postcard enthusiast and friendly person!

PHILOSOPHY

Treat other people well, be friendly, have fun, make the world a better place, etc.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A city is made so much better when you can spend your time with people who know and love it. I hope to experience cities around the world in this way.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couchsurfed in France, Germany, and the United States, and hope to host in New Zealand as well as couchsurf more in my next travels! I love turning up in a new city and automatically having new friends to hang out with and suggest the best spots to visit :)

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

In New Zealand, I am lucky to live 2 hours away from the beautiful Fiordland National Park. Climbing the mountains and looking out over the landscapes always leaves me lost for words!

living in Mexico City was incredible. I didn't want to leave and I can't wait to go back!
