About Me

Hi everyone. I'm from New Zealand and keen to travel outside my little corner of the world. Sure there's lots of great and interesting people out there.

I can say a lot of things about myself, but to get an unbiased view read my references

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am keen to meet new people from different places around the world. I hope to do more travelling, visit more places and meet more people and happy to help other people do the same.

I have hosted plenty of international travellers from many countries and met so many amazing people here. I love the couchsurfing community and believe that the world would be a much better place if the spirit behind couchsurfing prevailed across society.

Living alone can be lonely at times so i do like the company and friendship that guests provide me. The one request i do make of guests is if they are able to treat me the way i treated them when i visit their countries in future

Music, Movies, and Books

I like reading lots of non fiction books, especially about history, politics and economics. I have an encyclopedic knowledge of geography knowing great detail about all the countries of the world. I like historical dramas for movies. I also love chess and strategic board games. I have and like to play Settlers of Catan (and have done with some of my guests).
