About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Tramping, learning how to grow food, trying to outsmart my rabbit - I'm not having much luck with this one

ABOUT ME

I'm new to this couch surfing thing (I've hosted but this is my first time surfing!), though I have had a lot practice sleeping on couches, mainly from meeting people travelling and being a poor student. I loose my phone a lot. I like meeting new people and sharing ideas. I like travelling and tramping and I also like coming home and having clean clothes to wear. I attempt to do Tai Chi and Kung Fu twice a week. I live with my husband and two cats and the rabbit which has vaguely run away, but still returns to eat my vegetables.

PHILOSOPHY

I like experiencing new things, meeting new people, hearing new ideas, learning about stuff

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've just been hosting so far, I'm keen to start surfing at some stage though.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted a few people so far and I've really enjoyed the experience. I like learning about other countries and seeing other points of view. I've learnt a lot about Dunedin since I started hosting!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm up to learn a lots of things and teach some things too. I find these things usually come about after you've been chatting to someone for a while.

What I Can Share with Hosts
