Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Providing a quiet, peaceful, stressfree respite in Katikati, New Zealand, and having done some couchsurfing in Europe and Sth America.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have hosted many great people so far! Have now done some surfing in Europe and Sth America...great experiences.

Interests

Motorcycle riding, alternative (homemade) electricity, relaxing, walking in NZ's fanastic back-country, having a beer with mates.

Do not ask to be friends on c/s until we have at least met.

Music, Movies, and Books

Discworld books, The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile, Boy, Black Sheep, and The Dark Horse (NZ) movies and mostly music I grew up with eg Rolling Stones, Cream, Pink Floyd, David Bowie. I think you follow me - old school but currently enjoying NZ's Gin also.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being hosted by amazing people. Himalayas by Royal Enfield motorcycle with mates, walking the Dusky Track in New Zealand with one of my sons. Dragged my kids around the Great Walks of NZ and some others as well.
