About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To spread positive energy through Storytelling and cultural diversity <3

ABOUT ME

I am not an enigma, but I am complex. I am not easy, but I am simple.
I am a Freedom Fighting Storyteller who laughs hard, works hard and plays hard too :D

PHILOSOPHY

We must all work to spread uthando (love), inkululeko (peace) nobuntu (and the spirit of humanity). Treating one another with respect, empathy and and interest will strengthen our ability to grow as a people. I believe the sharing of stories is an integral tool in doing this.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment, I am still just dipping my toes into this community...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm a newcomer to the community of couchsurfing.

Interests

I love the idea of creating a believable and inspiring story that allows one to explore the elements of oneself; particularly the elements one fears to possess. Besides being fun, hard and completely uncompromising as a companion, the only thing I have not experienced since realising my destiny as a Storyteller is boredom. I work hard and I am constantly under construction as a being. My cultural rooting in South Africa, uBuntu and my Zulu heritage are the foundation for my happiness, inspiration and creativity, it gives me a greater ability to love and embrace the diverse cultures of the world. I also love nature and wildlife.
Volate Ad Astra - Uthando. Inkululeko. Nobuntu...

Music, Movies, and Books

Most music, but hard rock and metal are not really for me. Movies...there's not enough space on this website. Books, read comment for movies, haha!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done the highest abseiling point in the world in Semonkong, Lesotho. Loved it!
Living in NYC during a snow blizzard and last but certainly not least, playing with lion cubs in Jozi, South Africa. Amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

Sawubona - hello in isiZulu, my mother tongue. Literally translated it means 'I see you'. I also think Jams Cameron (Director of Avatar) spent some time with the Zulu nation before he made his no.1 film hahaha!

Countries I’ve Visited

Italy, Malaysia, Mozambique, Portugal, Spain

Countries I’ve Lived In

France, South Africa, United Kingdom, United States
