Born and raised in Northland, NZ.
I grew up on a farm, which gave me a little adventurous streak. I would definitely describe myself as someone who is light-hearted, chill, not afraid to put in some hard-yards, nature-loving, open-minded and always looking to learn about new cultures, places, cuisines!

My boyfriend is traveling with me, his name is Andrea (and no, that's not a female name as everyone keep asking😂). He is Italian born, but we met in Melbourne, Australia where we worked together in a bar (Boilermaker House; check it out!). He is super passionate about all things good and drinks and also loves soccer-as most Italians do! Also very adventurous, hence our trip around Mexico for 1 1/2 months with no itinerary.

We are currently embarking on a trip around Mexico,and will be settling back into NZ after a short stop in Italy and London to visit family.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mainly for travel through Mexico. We have made no definite plans so far and are on a bit of a budget, so seeking out local and friendly accommodation.
We really are looking for places to stay that we can experience the non-tourist side of the location. I think if you are going to stay in a fancy hotel and chill by the pool you can probably just do that at home.
