I am a Namibian, born free, with a love for animals, the outdoors, good food and a challenge.

Recently emigrated to the Netherlands, excited to take on a new adventure in a new country, new people, culture and new challenges!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A local's perspective is always better than any travel agency or website, they'll show you and tell of the spectacular places that not many people have seen, providing you with a unique experience every time. Couchsurfing is what separates travellers from tourists, and I much prefer being a traveler...

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - Basically all genres except jazz and blues (it's like wine and olives, you have to learn to love it). In particular, I do enjoy rock from the 1970's and 80's and then chill step and dubstep is what I listen to when I study, write or read.

Movies - All Guy Richie, Wes Anderson, Quentin Tarantino and Martin Scorsese films. I also have a soft spot for animations...

Books - I enjoy James Patterson books and like any other girl, love stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've jumped down a gorge at the Victoria Falls, free falling for a total of 3.7sec (felt like a lifetime) and had the opportunity to white water raft the great Zambezi river . Also, I had the opportunity to climb the Great Wall of China and stroll in the Imperial Palace.
I got married to the love of my life (literally my best friend since I can remember), moved to a new country and started a new life.
