An Aussie in NZ, working and exploring 😊
I came over for the winter ski season on the North Island and now I'm here for the summer season too, on the South Island!

I love travel, music festivals, hiking, everything outdoorsy, photography, nature, trying new things, meeting new people, experiencing the nightlife in different cities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I use this app a lot for meetups and hangouts in different cities around the world. I have met so many kind and interesting new people, it's so nice to be able to make new friends in a place where you know no one!

Interests

I love to sit around camp fires under the milky way, having deep and meaningful conversations, and playing the djembe.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Worked in Niseko, Hokkaido Japan for a winter ski season.

Drove all around New Zealand without a phone, just using a book of road maps, sleeping in the car every night, and hiking every day for 2 months.

Walked across a crater and saw lava on the Big Island of Hawai'i. Lived and volunteered in an eco-community in the jungle (Hedonesia has since been completely destroyed by the lava flows)

Volunteered at a Buddhist institute in Australia, out in a forest.

Snorkeling in the Great Barrier Reef, Vanuatu, and Hawai'i

Lived in a tent for a month while volunteering at Woodford Folk Festival during a 40 degree summer in Australia
