ABOUT ME
Hi, my name is Dylan. I'm a 30 year old guy from New Zealand, but living in Dubai. I’m a skydiving instructor and during my free time I enjoy getting out into the mountains for a hike or meeting friends for coffee or wine. Really approachable and easy going. I like a good adventure and good vibes. Always saving up for another world trip! LGBTQI friendly :)

CURRENT MISSION
Travelling China this month!

PHILOSOPHY
-Life begins at the edge of your comfort zone.
-The saddest words of mice and men, are those that are; "it might have been".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe in being open to opportunities and allowing good things to naturally happen. Hospitality to one another is one of the simplest but most meaningful things we can share with each other.

Interests

In my free time I like exploring nature and the outdoors and hanging out with friends. I love to get a bunch of people together and have a BBQ or do a pot-luck dinner. I also enjoy photography, riding motorbikes and coffee.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Learnt how to skydive and now working in the industry. Convincing myself to jump out of a plane solo for the first time is something that I will never forget.
In 2018, I was part of a team that completed the Mongol Rally, and we drove a 1L Nissan Micra from England to Mongolia.
Snorkelled with jellyfish on the Great Barrier Reef, with whale sharks in the Philippines and with humpback whales in Tonga.

Teach, Learn, Share

Anything. I'm an open book. I’m good with a camera, so I can take nice photos of you. Also, I know a couple of bad drinking games..

What I Can Share with Hosts
