About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To be as alive as possible, every single day

ABOUT ME

I’m curious about the world. I’m living in Sweden. I’m from New Zealand. I love South America. I miss the mountains so much that when I saw a climbing documentary last week, the opening shots made me cry. I mountain bike. I ski. I hike. If you sing something, I’ll improvise the harmony. I’m studying social-ecological resilience and sustainable development because I think it’s important. I draw. I want to learn how to do web cartoons. When I was living in New Zealand we used to get together and play covers of the Decembrists. I want to know more about you.

Tengo curiosidad sobre el mundo. Vivo en Suecia. Soy de Nueva Zelanda. Amo Sur América. Las montañas las extraño tanto que cuando vi un documentario sobre alpinismo, los primeros momentos me hizo llorar. Hago ciclismo de montaña. Esquío. Voy de excursiones. Si vos cantás algún, improvisaré la armonía. Estudio resilience social-ecológico y desarrollo sostenible porque creo que es importante. Dibujo. Quiero aprender como hace caricaturas digitales. Cuando vivía en Nueva Zelanda, tocábamos versiones de los Decembrists. Me gustaría saber más de vos.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm still figuring that one out. Let me get back to you. Maybe you can tell me yours?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

To meet like-minded people and share experiences.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing has been a great way to host and meet people - everything from finding the vibe of Shanghai to meeting long-term friends in Stockholm!

Interests

OK, so I'm a geek, which means I'm interested in just about anything! You can tell me about web comics, medieval swordmanship or obscure outdoors sports. I will be fascinated.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ice climbed Pinnacles Ridge on Mt Ruapehu, New Zealand. Subzero. Clambering to the top at midnight, seeing the moon shining on the snow, rocks and clouds; the wind gusting and then still; the lights of houses shining in the distance.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to bake bread. I would love to learn more about drawing!
