I love to travel, dance, cook and play music. I find travelling teaches me so many things about other countries: their history, culture and their cuisines. I am a foodie but not much of a shopper in general so I don't tend to hit the malls when I am travelling. When I am at home I like to spend time with my friends and family. They are very important to me. I travel with Jay, here's his link:https://couchsurfing.page.link/nV8xPLDcb9aSVNex5 Most of our CouchSurfing is through his profile.
Interested in Cooking
Interested in Musical Instruments
Interested in Reading
Fluent in English
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
We (I travel with my husband Jay) travel a lot and thought it would be fantastic to meet the locals. I haven't used Couchsurfing in a few years, but I have really enjoyed the experience in the past. This year (2024) we will be travelling for a few months and are looking forward to new experiences and meeting new people. We would also love to show visitors to Auckland around (when we can - obviously weekends and evenings are easier because of work).
Music, Movies, and Books
My favourite music is pop music. I love to watch and read comedies as I enjoy some light entertainment.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I volunteered in a blind school in England for a GAP year after high school. A fantastic experience.
Teach, Learn, Share
Can teach you partner dancing (like salsa, bachata or ceroc), share recipes and stories and I want to learn about your everyday life.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I can cook you a nice meal! Also can give advice about travelling to the place I have already been to and of course share anything you want to know about New Zealand!
