Hi, I'm Ants.
I live in the most beautiful (I think) part of the world, tutukaka 😊😊. I am surrounded by the sea, surf, ancient trees and bird song (sometimes kiwi if you are lucky). Tutukaka a great place to surf, dive, swim, trail run, kayak and explore.
I love surfing , painting, guitars and music and am always keen to jam or sing. Trail running in the native coastal bush is blissful. Happy to teach a little guitar and would love to learn something about your local culture, food, philosophy or anything else cool in return.
I love neuroscience, brains , neuroglia, neuroplasticity and discussing anything to do with the mind, health, medicine and the universe :)
I'm enjoying eating a plant based diet supplemented by any fish or shellfish I catch myself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the idea of sharing the beauty of this area with people from other parts of the world and maybe making some friends and contacts along the way :) It's great to have people visit who are keen to explore the natural beauty of this coast line, surf with, hike or run or just chat. If you play music thats a bonus!

Interests

I love to paint (IG@tikiscapes) I am getting into a little more long distance trail running. Im a long board surfer and always keen to get out for a dawnie :). My true love is guitars ad playing in the surf guitar band 'the bull kelp surfers'.
