CURRENT MISSION

Roadtrip USA

ABOUT ME

We're a couple of 26 year olds who enjoy meeting new people and finding interesting things to do in Wellington City. We like films, books, animals and having a beer or wine with good people.

Jason works in film post production and always has plenty going on, whether it be designing for friends, building a photobooth, photography or short film projects or cooking his way through The Lee Bros Southern Cookbook (lucky me).

I'm Kate, I've been studying art in between various jobs. With the end of my degree coming up I'm going to spend my time working on my online vintage clothing store. I blog, mostly about dresses and food.

We're friendly, relaxed and fun, and we may be a couple but at home in NZ we live with friends rather than alone, and we don't just keep to ourselves. We're looking to have fun and be social on our couchsurfing journey.
