CURRENT MISSION

Choosing love over fear

ABOUT ME

I grew up in South Africa, studied in the US and now I live in Bogotá. I run an ecotourism company and I also love taking pictures, especially while traveling. My website is www.cdpphotography.com

PHILOSOPHY

You haven't seen something until you've photographed it....and that's the truth!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to host surfers when I had a bigger place but right now I'm living in a studio apartment with my husband. I have surfed in Spain, Portugal and the US and had some amazing experiences. Now that I'm mostly in Bogotá I would like to start participating in more meet ups.
