* Won a singing contest for foreigners singing Korean songs in Busan. * Cycled the length of New Zealand to raise money for World Vision. * Travelled around the world in 2 years, living in 6 countries, and visiting 7 others. *Boating in the darkness through the jungles of Borneo, with the plankton sparkling in the waves, fireflies in the trees, and stars in the sky... Amazing!

I am a teacher in many ways... I have taught English professionally for years, but I also teach massage, yoga, and loads of other things. I want to learn anything and everything you might have to share! I love learning new recipes, healing therapies, languages, magic tricks, or anything! Recently I have been off of CS because it seemed to have lost its magic, and just became about staying places for free. I don't want or need free accommodation, but I do prefer to connect with people as I travel. Let's see if we can bring back the sharing and connecting of couch surfing!

I am quite an experienced traveller, so I can give lots of tips and advice about many of the places I have been, especially Malaysia. I can also teach English, and a bit of massage techniques if anyone is interested :)

Anything natural, holistic, and healthy is something that I am interested in! I love doing Thai massage, I love sports (although not great at them) and really love music. I've also been a teacher for 10 years so I'm great with kids and love them (in small doses :))
