About Me

Hey if ask to stay can you mainly ask soon before you want arrive? If you don't have somewhere to stay and arriving tomorrow Im the right guy to ask! I usually dont know where I will be a week in advance!

CURRENT MISSION

Walking the walk

ABOUT ME

I just finished my 3rd year studying maths at UoL. Im from New Zealand originally but moved to london when I was 10 and then up to liverpool 3 years ago. Still support the All Blacks over england though! I like to have as much of a good time as possible, even it it becomes fairly unhealthy! I travel as much as possible, hitchhiking wherever I can go when I have spare time. Always got music playing, still go to sleep listening to audiobooks! I just got back from 3 months hitch hiking and camping savage around Europe and am now looking for a job to save money to go again"

PHILOSOPHY

Talk to everyone, see where I end up

Hmm that was a while ago. Visited and lived in uganda for a few months back in 2015 then hitched/train travelled from london to hong kong. Back in NZ to earn some money (haha) and get a feel for the hometown.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting great people and going to stay with great people!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Been impromptu couchsurfing while hitchhiking but never organised it. Had a great time going to a jazz festival in southern France with some guys who picked me up on a mountain road near Spain! Had silly amounts people stay over 13/14 in the student house which has been great fun! Not everyone came out alive

I could come to the city to be earnest for you.

Orbital the brown album. Caribou sun. Techno is best. Minimal is nice.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watched the sunrise on top of mount Sinai in Egypt

Teach, Learn, Share

Can teach juggling fairly well. Lots of skills like handstands and doing back flips. Can teach you how to build a computer or advanced complex algebra, but I don't consider that so much fun. Will teach you whatever you want

What I Can Share with Hosts

Too much
