I'm a creative bunny who loves dance, drawing, peanut butter smoothies, ice skating, theatre sports, intellectual discussions, Game of Thrones and murder mysteries. I'm fun-loving and outgoing but don't mind curling up with a good book and blanket on a rainy day. My passions include teaching (dance, theatre and English) and partner dancing (West Coast Swing, modern jive and Brazilian Zouk). I love cooking (and eating...), taking long afternoon naps, exploring new places, and meeting new people. Basically, I'm a cat!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm about to embark on a six-month backpacking trip around Europe and would love to meet and stay with locals who can introduce me to life in their home countries and who I can share a little piece of New Zealand with. I would love to host someday and be able to offer a slice of my life to anyone interested in visiting NZ!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I skydived in Queenstown from 12,000 ft! I'd love to try bungee jumping next.

Teach, Learn, Share

I both teach and learn dance in various different styles and love to share my passion with anyone I meet! I also love to exchange languages; I don't speak any language except English fluently but I have dabbled in French and Spanish and would love to be conversational in another language.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can sketch you a pencil/charcoal portrait of yourself to keep or as a gift for someone you love. I also offer puns, terrible jokes and plenty of fun!
