My name is Daniel. I’m originally from Manchester in England but now living in New Zealand as a resident! I love to travel, meet new people, try new things, the outdoors, exploring, good food and music. I like to have deeper discussions about life, perspective and outlook, principle and so on. I’m not a drinker or a party person. I like to take it slow, take it as it comes, live for the moment as much as I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it’s a much more enjoyable way of getting around. Being able to actually meet people and potentially make friends on your journey. Learn something new, discover something about a place.

Interests

Travelling, the outdoors, hill walking, hiking, scrambling, kayaking. Going out with friends, the movies, eating out, guitar playing, the gym, road trips, weekends away and more!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 18 I set a goal that was to visit each and every fully independent country in all of Europe (lay overs do not count 😉) and after 8 years I touched down in Moscow and finished it!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a gentle character and easy to get along with.
