CURRENT MISSION There are so many personalities and experiences from all over the world that I love to learn from. People that have done the most spectacular things, seen the most beautiful locations and lived in bizarrely inspirational ways.. I want to hear the stories! ABOUT ME *whew* I never like filling these things out. But okay, so I've just moved to Auckland from a very small town in the South Island and I'm looking to make new friends around here the best known way I could: couchsurfing =) I was a couchsurfing host in Invercargill as a student for 2 years and had a blast but I've never had the opportunity to try the surfing side of it so here I go. I've learned first-hand that the couchsurfing community is made up of some particularly wonderful people and if I'm lucky enough, I hope to get the chance to meet some of you here in Auckland! Furthermore, my current living arrangements are temporary so I'm going to throw out the second request; if you've got a spare room to accommodate a border/flatmate, hit me up because I'm a friendly guy, easy-going and I love to cook =) and just in case you're unsure about a new person living in your space, my job requires me to be on 6-10 week placements around New Zealand and I only come back to Auckland for a few weeks at a time before getting sent away again. I would naturally pay for rent or board all year round (including the time I'm away) just because I need a place to come back to when we've finished a placement, so I'll be no bother at all. How cruisy is that?! But that's enough about me, I can't wait to meet you! Let me know if you're free to catch up sometime or if I could couchsurf at your place for a night (Have a potluck dinner or something)... Hope to meet you soon! PHILOSOPHY Don't only practice your art, but force your way into its secrets. I'm not entirely sure... I'm still trying to determine a main objective in life but taking it as it goes is more than enough in the meantime to keep me busy and happy.
