CURRENT MISSION
I’m from New Zealand originally but after 20 years of travel I moved to Austin recently and decided to finally settle down. Love this city and I can’t wait to show it off to other couchsurfers!

ABOUT ME

I think my friends would say I was funny, very enthusiastic, easy going, interesting and thoughtful. I hope so anyway!

I also love to cook, play sport have interesting conversations and meet new people. And above everything...I love new adventures and challenges!

PHILOSOPHY

I would say that life is about enjoyment and experiencing all the wonderful things the world has to offer!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I finally have a place so can call my own and so with that I am able to return the favor to all the people around the word that have hosted me or shown me their city.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met and stayed with many wonderful people through CS. I also find this such a great way to meet local people and have a unique insight into the place I am visiting!

Music, Movies, and Books

Massive attack, Into the Wild, Fleet Foxes, David Crosby, Fleetwood Mac, Future Islands, Greta Van Fleet....it seems if you have a Fleet in your band name I will like you

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had a week in Jeresalum a few years back that blew me away. Such an amazing atmosphere in that place.

I also remember being left awestruck on night in Varanasi, India. That place was like stepping back in time!

What I Can Share with Hosts

There is a limited number of things to do and see in Austin during the day. The night is where it comes alive. Austin has an amazing music scene and as I go out 3-4 times per week to see live music I will be able to show you where to go.
