Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Surfing, shenanigans and now hosting. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE A travelling ragtime band once slept and performed in our flat lounge back in New Zealand, so this lit the couchsurfing fire and it's carried on ever since
Music, Movies, and Books
MUSIC: The Shins, Shapeshifter and Sigur Ros are three of many. BOOKS: Will devour almost anything. MOVIES: Something to make you laugh, something to make you think.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Standing under a 174m high waterfall in the Fiordland National Park with the spray turning to snow as it falls.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach a little guitar, could share what language skills I have, tell stories tall or true, and can attempt to cook if you are otherwise liable to starve to death.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I've said it once, so I'll say it again. Shenanigans.
