Hi, I'm a friendly, respectful 34 year old New Zealander.. who grew up in Africa :) I'm currently touring Europe by bike as it's my 'low season' for work at home.

Hmm, what else... I enjoy philosophy, am open minded, into adventure sports...

Come visit New Zealand!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I appreciate meeting locals, and generally getting to know new people, their experiences and perceptions :)

Interests

I grew up in the outdoors and now work in the outdoor industry. New Zealand is a great place for such things. Also love music, a good boogie and to expand my understanding of this world.

• whitewater kayaking, hiking, music, meditation
