About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Move to Canada!

ABOUT US

Hello! This is now a joint profile for my girlfriend Georgia and I. We are both from Dunedin, NZ and are off to live in Tofino for the summer with a hopeful few Mexico and US excursions along the way!

We love food and you can find us on Instagram as volcanicoysters! We would love to cook for our hosts to show what we’ve found around the worlds cuisines!

Georgia just finished a job as an environmental officer and Thomas is a Motorcycle mechanic in training. We love surfing and meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

Party on Wayne!
