So, I'm a friendly and non-conventional type of gal who enjoys nature, whispering leaves in trees, and the simple life, yet need a dose of arts and culture every so often. I love diversity of people and things...I grew up in Swaziland, and have returned after plus/minus 24 years living in Cape Town, with a sojourn of a year and a half in the UK in 2005/6. I moced a fortnight ago far down Pine Valley with my two entertaining cats...(Well, that is subjective, of course - i.e. that they're hugely entertaining). The cottage is amongst many trees and greenery, and cheeky vervet monkeys visit from time to time.... . Come and stay a night or two if you are happy with peace and a rural setting surrounded by fruit trees. 20 mins drive to town.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I discovered yesterday, to my amusement, that I had already joined in 2012...! Say no more. Anyway, having just hosted a lovely couchsurfer, without actually being signed up, I decided to activate my account. What a marvellous way to meet new people, and offer hospitality and friendship. I love travelling, and will hopefully do some in the near future again.
