CURRENT MISSION

Learn creative ecology

ABOUT ME

I'm studying towards my Masters in Applied Psychology at the University of Waikato. My field is called Applied Behaviour Analysis, and I am using this method to research pro-environmental behaviours.

I also work on our farm where we are developing table grapes using an Organic, Biological, and Permaculture practice. Farming is all about challenges. And praxis. But at the end of the day you fall asleep and feel like you've done something good:)

Sometimes I roam around...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I'm at home I try to host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In Wellington, NZ, I was part of the CS house SWAMP FLO, and we had surfers pretty much every week. It was a small house but it was awesome. It was great to be able to give in this way, and nearly all the flatmates were CSers- we were a house formed by our want to host surfers.

Also surfing overseas. Its always fun. I've met some amazing people.
