About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy my second chance at life. If you meet me, I will explain more

ABOUT ME

About me, hmm well as I recently celebrated a milestone birthday. I realized that I had not accomplished much in my life . So I decided to make a change. I have handed in my notice and booked a flight to New Zealand. How long I stay or where I will go, only life knows. But I like to enjoy life as it comes now. So I know I need to get out and explore all the hidden places in New Zealand. So if that is by hiking, running, cycling kayaking, or even by jumping out of a plane. Then I will be gladly put my best foot forward to go and enjoy what that day has to offer.

PHILOSOPHY

Everyone deserves a second chance in life. So make the most of it all, by doing extraordinary things every day. Or just go around with a smile on your face, and enjoy the day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

back packed around Europe and seen east coast of Australia, with my brother.

Interests

cycling, prefer mountain biking, but I did have 2 bikes to keep me entertained. Hiking in the great outdoors. Sampling the local food and drink. Listening to new music, from folk to jazz or to pop music and dancing the day away till dusk comes up.

Music, Movies, and Books

James Bond, Lord of the Rings, The Italian Job.
Music goes from classical, to funk to dance to jazz to pop. So don't worry you can't offend me, as I have heard it all.
Books, Tom Clancy fan, , Ian Fleming, Alex Cross books, Matthew Reilly, oh and Roald Dahl famous kids author. His imagination in the books are second to none.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Overcome horrific personal injuries, to be able to live again, and enjoy life for what it is.

Teach, Learn, Share

Can teach basic steps for salsa or jive. After all long evenings spent indoors whilst waiting to save money to travel, can get frustrating at time. However would love to learn about the local culture, and local dishes, and what represents different parts of a country.
