Hobbies
Growing up in the North of Auckland, I have had access to a range of stunning beaches and love swimming even when it´s a bit too cold! In university I found my love of Kickboxing, especially the adrenaline and power you feel from it! I also did huge amounts of musical activities in high school, including running the school choir, being the lead in the school musical and I currently play acoustic guitar as a hobby.
