CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

kiwi male human who has travelled around this amzing planet of ours for the best part of the last 10 years, i am back in sunny auckland newzealand back at the coalface of working life but longterm trying to find the balance between working to survive and doing the things i love or better yet making the things i love doing turn into how i work to survive. I like trees,drawing faces and beverages of all types.I really dont think its possible to define yourself into a text box so um yeah whatever really.

PHILOSOPHY

be good, four twenty and pay it forward.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

since noone was willing to put me up on my most recent world trip , i thought id actually host someone, so hopefully next time the karma will come around.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

thanks to everyone who has put me up and put with me in past even before it was fashionable

Music, Movies, and Books

dont like to genre discriminate good music is good music but it's probably better if it makes your head move. i think fantastic mr fox is a great film so is princess mononoke and the big lebowski. if i am bored enough i will read anything but my last guide book(which i read back2back about 3 times out of boredom) watching alot of herzog at the moment ,but trying to balance it out with arrested development

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

walking alone in the karakoram

Teach, Learn, Share

can probably show you a few good recipes and tricks in kitchen ,if its winter and your a bit of noob we can head up the snow and help you link your first turns and due to a severe case of geographic transcience i can most definitely find you a cheap as flight.
