I'm an awesome, easy going, sociable, fun spirited South African living and traveling abroad with my Finnish fiance. I animate video game characters for a living and absolutely love my career. Always looking to enjoy life and nature. Also trying to experience the wide world and it's many incredible people, places and cultures. Currently we are on our trip around the world. We began our journey in 2018 and after arriving in Australia we stopped off to work for over a year as I was headhunted by an animation studio in Brisbane to work on animated feature films. Now that the work is done we are back on our way to travel around the globe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

So it doesn't cost me a fortune to see the world! Hahaha Mostly to get to know other travelers, share stories and laughs, experience more local life wherever I go and to make new friends. Also share my couch so others can afford to travel and share their travel experience with us.
