About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Traveling as much as I can, meeting people, learning languages and wodering about life, love and everything inbetween. Mostly, I just wanna live ;) and I mean, truly LIVE :)

ABOUT ME

I'm a young South African guy. Traveled quite a bit in Europe and Southern Africa and would love to see more. I easily get along with people and make friends with strangers easily (if they are friendly people of course). I love music, singing traveling and just experiencing everything. I love to do the local thing whenever I travel by trying to get away from the tourist traps and seeing what life in a certain location is truly about. All and all, I would say I'm a very interesting and pleasant person, but I am open to be proved wrong ;)

PHILOSOPHY

I am passionate about life. Vivi apassionatamente! La dolce vita! Can't put my philosophy into words. You will just see it in my being

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

New to couchsurfing. Have hosted people from Poland before, we had an unbelievable time.... I do work full-time though. But am one of the best "tourguides" you will find in Pretoria (and a bit of Jo-burg as well). :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None via Couchsurfing. But have been hosted by people in Austria and France. Made lifelong friends there. You experience the true essence of a country when you mingle with the it's people.
