Hi all,
i am Shari from Germany, currently living in New Zealand.
After finishing my bachelor in food science i needed some time off and decided to travel to New Zealand. At the moment i work as an Aupair in Pukekohe. I really really love the way of living in New Zealand. Its pretty different to Germany and i enjoy it.
I will be here at least until March.
Now something about me: i am a pretty honest, outgoing, open-minded woman. I love doing sports.. at the moment i started to train for a triathlon next year and a tough mudder! I am also used to go to the gym but still love being outside for long walks etc.
I am a very social woman, i need people around me but still i need some quite time during the day as well. i like going out at a weekend but also enjoy nights with cooking, dvds and just being lazy!
in Germany i already lived by my own and know how to clean or being clean. I am not messy at all, i prefer tiding up and cleaning everything straight after cooking for example!
So, that was a short introduction to myself. Remember i still have to improve my english and i am glad about every conversation and a friendly open home during my travels :-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to meet new people living in New Zealand. I am interested in the different ways people can live. I would be also keen for showing me beautiful/adventurous places without tourists :-)
