I'm 27, from the UK and I worked as a graphic designer in London for five years before realising that sitting behind a screen all day wasn't making me happy... so I quit my job, sold most of my stuff and now I'm here! I'm travelling around New Zealand trying to learn more about what I really want to do with my life – sustainability, ecology, just alternative ways of living and being more connected with the world around me.

I really enjoy finding out about other people's cultures/ways of thinking/opinions. Healthy, respectful debate is how we learn. Anyone who thinks they've stopped learning is doing it wrong!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I didn't just want to do the same old backpacker routes and only meet other travellers. I came here to try and integrate myself into Kiwi life, and I think couchsurfing is such a good way to meet people I might not normally come across and learn about their lives.

音乐、电影和书籍

My music taste is unrefined and all over the place; I'm the opposite of a music snob!

I could watch Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure every day and not get bored of it. I also am a bit obsessed with The Simpsons...

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I threw myself out of a plane within a week of being in this country despite being so terrified of heights and flying that I often have panic attacks when I'm in a plane. I think it might have cured me a bit!

教，学，和分享

I'm always open to improvement in all areas of my life!
