Hi! I'm an event coordinator from Auckland, New Zealand. (If I've added you as a friend, it probably means I have run out of introductions for the week and am planning my next trip overseas.)
Couch surfing isn't much of a thing here, but after experiencing some amazing hospitality while in the States, I thought I'd do my bit to offer some Kiwi hospitality while back at home.
When I'm not working, I put my energy into travelling - or at least dreaming about my next adventure.
I'm a big foodie, and will never say no to sightseeing or trying new types of food when outside of my home city. You say tomato, I say, "sure why not?"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Whoever said events was a career for making money, lied. I should have listened to my parents. :P
(Which also means that any contribution towards living costs from couchguests staying with us in AKL would be gladly appreciated!) TY :))
