About Me

I am from Cape Town South Africa, and this will be my first time outside of South Africa, and furthermore living away from home.

I am new to Couchsurfing.
I am 20 years old, and love Spider-Man as well as other marvel characters. I come from a good loving family which are a huge part of the equation of who I am today.

I am an extrovert, love hanging out with friends. Hobbies of mine is finding good coffee, reading, watching movies, running, listening to podcasts.

I am a swimmer, which is the main reason for me moving to America as a student-athlete at Union College KY.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This is all new to me, but with the hopes to connect with as many people over the period of stay in America. To learn about the various cultures, places, and history.
