About Me

I'm a care-free traveler of the universe. I am driven by success and failure. I can't deal with pretenders and dishonesty.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Im traveling around the world and couch surfing seems the best way to meet like-minded people.

Interests

Traveling, reading, film festivals, music festivals basically anything that allows me to express myself freely. I am an ex athlete, due to injury I was forced into early retirement. I used to represent my country playing netball, I played basketball nationally and I was the junior high jump and javelin champion.

Music, Movies, and Books

My interests are very diverse, I read books ranging from self help by Robin Sharma and John C. Maxwell to thrillers by Tom Clancy and Maya Banks .

I like all kinds of music from contemporary rock music to acoustic jazz music.

I watch all kinds of series and movies, however I am unable to watch American Horror stories. I think it is a little too crazy, even for me :-).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have built houses and irrigation systems with my hands for people in under developed countries. - I lived in East Africa for 2 years volunteering. What an amazing experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am an English teacher by trade, however I am a qualified level 2 sports coach. I am also a qualified Netball umpire. I love to cook so I could possibly show off my culinary expertise :-).

What I Can Share with Hosts

I could share interesting stories about my travels around the globe so far. I could also prepare 1 dish from each of the countries I lived in.

I am an easy going person, who values personal space and respects privacy.
