I'm a fun and friendly kiwi acupuncturist looking to live and work here for the next two or so years on my working visa.
I love to travel and explore, meet new people and generally just go and have fun.
I'm keen on swing dancing, art, film, poetry, exploring nature and historical places, health, yoga and running.

I'm really looking forward to meeting new people and making friends in this fantastic part of the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to meet new people and my friends have said that this is the best way to get a feel for the local area and culture on a budget.
