Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Continue my travels whilst snapping away and laughing so much that I get a few wrinkles
ABOUT ME
I love being outdoors and enjoy having people around. I enjoy playing sports (tennis, squash, running, volleyball) and my hobby's are photography and completing my list of 101 things to do before I die. I have a sarcastic sense of humour and enjoy a good laugh with some good company!
I have traveled around the world. I feel that traveling is the only expense that doesn't make a person poor, it is constantly putting yourself out your comfort zone and learning from all walks of life.
Well I think that covers most things!
PHILOSOPHY
My lifes motto is to live life to the fullest, this can be done with hard work and a sense of humour.
I believe you can do anything you put your mind to, through perseverance, passion and a good support system
I also believe you need to take yourself out of your comfort zone as often as possible in order for you as a person to grow and discover new things about yourself
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I would like to be able to offer the opportunity to someone to come stay with me, as when I return to SA, I might not be doing as much travelling as I have done in the past, and this is my way of still being able to meet different people and different cultures.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have used couchsurfing a lot on my Canadian travels as well as traveling down the west coast of the USA for 3 months....since then hosted a few couch surfers, it was definitely the couch surfers I have met on my travels that made the experiences unforgettable!
