I'm a retired Building Contractor and Massage Therapist, I know strange mixture, I learned massage first but I had always loved creating things and ended being a Carpentry apprentice as well. I have 1 son who is 21 next month and no longer lives with me. I love sailing and any other excuse for being on, in or near the water. I love movies, live theatre, music, photography, reading, red wine as long as it's Pinot Noir and from Central Otago. I like hiking although I can't at the moment due to an ankle injury I got while sailing. When I was last active on Couch Surfing, I had a huge number of guests in a very short period of time and a lot of very good reviews.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm retired and injured and bored, I thought some occasional company would make life more interesting. I just need guests so I can have good reviews to get other Couch Surfers to trust me and stay here.
