Couchsurfing Organization New Zealand
The CouchSurfing Wiki, an informal workspace which anyone can edit.
Kiaora! Thank you for your interest in the New Zealand ambassador team.
This page is to provide you with more information about the New Zealands ambassadors
CouchSurfing has a stated mission to do more than simply connecting surfers and hosts. We're all here to have fun, but we're also here to help make the world a better place. As representatives of CouchSurfing, Ambassadors have the duty to understand and promote this mission in the world, as well as to provide an example for other members.
Below is a list of the current New Zealand Ambassadors, with a list of everyone's tasks.
Feel free to contact any of us according to our fields of expertise.

I myself have been here for 5 years now and know the place quite well. Am trying to get the CS message out there and get more hosts for the numerous surfers that come by. I love meeting people and experiencing different cultures which is what all CS is about."

Kris says, "I'm always finding myself on the road, flying the CS colours. It offers something so different but exhilarating in this world, where so many live in their own worlds, never venturing far. I endorse its culture and ethos and try and live my life in true Couchsurfing style, one couch at a time." |
