About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm a 27 year old kiwi girl based in Wellington, NZ. I work in the film Industry as a props painter, and in my spare time I make my own artwork and theatre design. Food and eating healthy is very important to my lifestyle and I love to cook and experience new cuisines - it's one of my favourite things when travelling. I'm open minded and friendly and enjoy meeting and chatting with new people and learning about their culture. I'm honest, respectful and a grateful couch surfer

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The hosts I have stayed with in America have been generous with letting us stay and helping out with figuring out the transportation in each new place and giving us tips on their favourite places.
