I'm an all around social butterfly. Perhaps that is why I've found myself working in hospitality and tourism. I absolutely love nature, and thus - I have come to New Zealand. I like hiking, camping, rock climbing, following on ice climbing, very mild back country touring, and anything that brings my closer to nature. I'm a sucker for a sunset any day of the week. I like to cook, and I love a plate full of veggies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My van broke down -- and I'm really hoping I can score a few nights on a couch or two, as funds are tight at the moment. *I am allergic to cats, so please let me know.*
