Hi, I'm Jess and I'm a British born New Zealander who grew up in Indonesia and did a gap year in France! I had an incredible time working as an au pair in Alsace, and thanks to couchsurfing I was able to do heaps of traveling around Europe and meet lots of amazing people.

I just finished studying at the University of Otago in Dunedin, and now I'm in Wellington working as a public servant. Unfortunately I cannot host due to my current living situation by I am happy to meet up on the weekends and show you what an awesome city Wellington is!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I have been hosted by some incredible people in Europe and thanks to them I have explored new cities in ways I've never thought of doing! I've also had the pleasure of hosting a couple of surfers and I'm looking forward to hosting more in the future.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I will listen to anything except heavy metal! My dad is a music teacher so I grew up with lots of classical and jazz music.

Any movie with Hugh Grant in it is a good movie! My favourite movie would have to be Love Actually, with Little Miss Sunshine coming in a close second.

I love reading most books, especially non-fiction.

I also need to add another category which I think is equally important - theatre! I love love love watching plays and musicals. Best musicals I have seen so far have been the Lion King and Phantom of the Opera - goose bumps! Best play I've seen would have to be The 39 Steps. It was hilarious, I was laughing the whole time.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Sunset at Ayers Rock (Uluru) in Australia. It was so breathtakingly beautiful, I just wish I had taken more photos!
