CURRENT MISSION

Chasing pow!

ABOUT ME

I live in Queenstown (dream!) and spend my days up Coronet Peak coaching an awesome bunch of 11-13 year olds. Love being outdoors, winter or summer, eating, cooking, generally just making the most of life.

I spent a year travelling South/Central America, Central Europe, Thailand and Bali in 2011/2012 and loved meeting travellers from all over the world. We couch surfed a couple of times and it was the best experience so I am now keen to return the favour!

PHILOSOPHY

You only get one life so make the most of it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I first couchsurfed in Santiago with two amazing girls for four days and absolutely loved it. It was such an great experience, we got to meet the locals and learn about city from people who live there, not from a guidebook or map! Couchsurfing is such a great idea and beats a hostel experience any day!
