I'm now based in Auckland, New Zealand.

Hi everyone,

So surreal to be back on CS :) This community never left my heart and I'm glad to be back here. Since I was last on CS, I moved back to New Zealand, became a teacher for 3 years (!) And now back working in television. My travel itch never really faded, and I'm at a point where I'm looking at hosting/meeting up with travelers again soon.

Looking forward to rediscovering Auckland as a host!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's always the people! I love listening to stories and discovering places with new friends! No trips have been the same when I travel/hosting with CS and I have such fondness for this community.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I climbed the highest mountain in Vietnam.

If you see me and how unfit I am, you'd understand.

I no longer climb mountains.

But I did that one time. So yeah.

What I Can Share with Hosts

It varies to be honest.

Sometime I'd make badly drawn portraits of hosts if they'd let me (I used to be an art major).

Stories. Ask me about that one time I hitchhiked in cannibals county in New Zealand, or when I mountainbiked on the feet of a volcano in Indonesia - none of those things were planned!
