About Me

I'm a University student living at a Flat in central Auckland off Dominion road with a group of my best mates. We're bunch of relaxed social people who enjoy having a few drinks and going out to live music. I enjoy cooking and spend most of my free time listening to music, socialising with friends or surfing around the wider Auckland region. When you stay I'll likely be off for a surf somewhere so you could hitch a lift with me, giving you the opportunity to explore some of Auckland's most beautiful locations. I love to explore the country and enjoy all of the wonders it has to offer.

I'll be travelling around New Zealand, (Mostly the South Island) in a van at the end of the year. So if you're looking for a companion to share the experience with around that time let me know.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

From my own experiences travelling in South East Asia (Vietnam, Laos ..) I often wished I had a friendly homelike atmosphere to relax in instead of the constant array of hostels and backpackers. I'm happy to offer a place to stay in order to help people enjoy NZ and experience the true kiwi culture, while making friends based around the world so I can experience the same cultural immersion when I travel. I'm planning on spending an extended period in Europe next year so It would be great to have some friends already there who can offer me a cup of tea and a place to stay!
