About Me

Born and raised in Aotearoa (New Zealand) of Maori / European Descent.
I am currently travelling through Europe for 5 months checking out the sights. Would love to utilise couch surfing as a tool to meet interesting local people and share stories, laughs and meals. I have studied Design and Audio Engineering; enjoy making art and being creative.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet local people - Share stories / philosophies
Learn new life skills - Please teach me to cook :)

Interests

Sports - Play a bit of most sports. Basketball. Keep fit running.

Food - Love to try local cuisines. Would love to learn how to cook some as well.

Tramping / Outdoors - Lots of great tramping in NZ

Self Sustainability - Interested in one day owning a bit of land and living self sufficiently. Solar/Low Environmental Impact/Food forests/Permaculture etc. When that happens I will host and hopefully teach :)

Music - Too many artists to list but fairly broad. Most styles from Electronic to Country.
