ABOUT ME

I'm a 20 year old from Central Otago, New Zealand. I can't seem to stay still and find myself constantly moving about. I'm pretty laid back and just tend to do things spontaneously - I prefer not to make any long term plans. I like to think I'm easy to get along with, I'm not judgmental and am interested in all sorts of oddballs and outsiders.
I'm really interested in alternative living and people who don't like to do the 9-5 work thing. I feel like there has to be more to our existence than what most people accept as 'life'. I'm not materialistic and tend to live very poor, but very happy. I value experiences over things.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that most problems can be solved by not taking life so seriously. I also believe in open mindedness and accepting all people as friends.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been to a lot of amazing places and seen a lot of amazing things, but the thing that always pops into my head was at my leaving party when we filled up a room with balloons and had a rave in it. I highly recommend doing this.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love the philosophy of this movement. I find that the more I travel, the more I learn to trust people. I've noticed it's gotten to the point now where people rarely smile as they pass a stranger on the street and I'd love to go back to the time when everyone trusted their neighbor. I know that the average person is wonderful and couchsurfing will help remind me of this. As far as what I can offer, I'm just a genuinely good friend. I have decent worldly knowledge (for my age) and can probably help remind you why you live in an amazing place.
