ABOUT ME

Kia ora koutou katoa,
Nau mai Haere mai ki te whenua o Aotearoa
Tiheei Mauri Ora

Im the "give anything a try" being, not afraid to step up to meet a challenge, living out of the confort zone is where i thrive best, learning, sharing and gaining more experience in life.
Go Do is the motto, ready to help in any adventure, mission, project, job, if someone is in need...
ill be there in a flash!

Way to many interests for one person, but being easily inspired by anything and everything makes life so much more stimulating and exciting, not a Pro or anything, but get enjoyment from the trying, just playing/doing/creating, being for the fun of it"

I enjoy preparing,cooking, eating and sharing healthy food with people.
and your home land cooking is definitly welcome!!!
Always keen to try cooking styles from around the world!

Keeping it simple, living, breathing and enjoying as many moments as i can,
life is a do it yourself project, if you can dream/think/imagine it, you can make it your reality.

Most of all, if your not having some kind of fun, then whats the point.

PHILOSOPHY

To lead by example, be in the moment, be mindful & aware of everything, create enjoyment in all activities, its great to find the fun side of everything :)
i
Most important... Share the awesome energy goodness of who you are!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Meeting worldly strangers is a joy in so many ways, creating trust as we get to know eachother, learning, sharing our stories then finding those ultimate connections that makes the moments... AMAZING :)
I enjoy meeting like minded people and also completly different!
i get inspired so easily, having conversations to stimulate the senses, and talks of culture, nature, philophosy, personal interests, or conspiracies, im open to broadening my horizon!

by opening my home up to worldly travellers, makes it all possible and helps their experience become even greater!

we are all teachers and students, put the pride away and let your heart sing!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

If you are looking for true life experience this is a great way to start! Anyone can book into a guest house,but to put yourself into a strangers enviroment is a real test of charachter(as well as hosting) and i have loved every minute of it!!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiked from Yosemite Valley to Mono Lake for 5days over the sierra nevada with Paiute and Miwok indians, for there annual traditional walk, joined in ancient ceremonies and we built a sweat lodge in the middle of the mountains, there is a huge lake that would cleanse us after each sweat, stars so bright above!!!
