Hi. My name is Toms. I recently finished my master studies in geography and now decided to backpack around New Zealand for a while - to see the world and meet new people. I am a bit shy and introverted but I enjoy meeting with interesting people and experience the world that maybe is not that familiar to me. I always try to look at things and experience them from a different perspective. Overall an open-minded person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was looking and thinking about different ways of traveling and how to meet new/local people and couchsurfing seems to be fun and exciting way of doing that. By couchsurfing I hope to meet new people, learn new things and break out of my comfort zone a bit. It`s all about trying to experience new things.

Interests

I love music. Mostly listen to Rock 'n' Roll (in its broadest possible meaning). In my free time I am trying to learn guitar. Interested in science, movies, stand up, philosophy, environment. I enjoy sarcasm, satire and humor :). Appreciate and like all things geeky and nerdy.
