I'm a friendly, independent, adventurous, respectful, compassionate and creative woman who is currently gypsy-nomading her way across the world. I don't have an itinerary as such - I'm just allowing myself to be blown by the wind... I love connecting with people to share with them at the individual level, as well as communities and cultures. I have a deep passion for conserving the natural environment, and I love to laugh often =)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm keen to connect with people at the local level and share our experiences together. There is a significant barrier when travellers stay in hotels (we can distance ourselves too much from reality), and couch-surfing helps both travellers and hosts to grow and expand themselves =)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A wild oryx walked right past me in the giant sand dunes of Sossusvlei, Namibia

Teach, Learn, Share

I love the exchange of knowledge, experiences, skills and cultures that come from grass-roots level interactions. I can help teach or share the English language with you =) I would also like to learn your language!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share the joy of life through laughter, compassion, hugs, listening and talking.

Be warned... I LOVE house-cleaning! I'm not kidding! There is something that gives me deep satisfaction in having a clean living environment, so if I stay with you I'd really like to contribute by helping out with the housework. I'm great at vacuuming, scrubbing bathrooms, cleaning out the pantry, gardening, and many other home-proud activities.
