Originally from the UK I’ve been travelling for over a year now, starting with 7 months in Latin America, a brief visit to the USA, 5 months in Canada and now New Zealand! Currently in NZ on a working holiday visa, I’m currently in Hokitika. I’m not in a position to host right now unfortunately but always happy to meet up for a coffee and give some recommendations for the area.

I used to be a Data Manager, but after 4 years I decided that I wanted to have some different experiences and see some other parts of the world; so I quit and started travelling.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

To meet people, surf and eventually host!

兴趣

Sea swimming, running, the great outdoors and nature. I also love cracking jokes at the pub!

音乐、电影和书籍

Anything M Night Shyamalan, Quentin Tarantino or Tim Burton film wise, but also enjoy smaller indie films capturing a moment in time.

Philippa Gregory and Jean Auel are my favourite authors. Nowadays I can pick up most books and read in a few days.

Music wise, I will never be able to name a band or a song - but I generally enjoy Scottish folk music, acoustic, indie etc. Favourite band at the moment seem to be Vampire Weekend with some of their more recent music 🎶

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

教，学，和分享

I’d love to learn more Spanish! I’m not sure if I have anything useful to teach, but if I can help with anything I’d happily pass on my wisdom 😊
