Overview
About Me
Born and raised in Johannesburg, South Africa! I started my own marketing and developmet company when I was 24 and ran that for 10 years. Now I'm just traveling, because I want to find somthing else to do with my life. I'm just on a search for that one inspiring moment.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love to travel but I'm not a fan of the tourist vibe. I want to learn about the place that I'm in from the people that actually live here. That's when you really get to know and understand a place. I love to meet people, listen to their stories and tell them my stories. That's how you make some real life long friends all around the globe.
Interests
When I lived in South Africa my favorite thing to do was ride long distances, mostly into the mountains, with my paragliding kit strapped to the back of my motorcycle. I'd spend the weekend in the mountains flying my with other paragliding pilots and drinking loads of beer with them in the evenings around a bonfire. I'm hoping to fly the alps in the near future, but for now I'm really just enjoying Michelada's on the beach in California!

Music, Movies, and Books
I'm really into synthwave right now. Reading "The Road" by Cormac McCarthy. Favorite movie of all time is "There will be Blood" with Daniel Day Lewis.

Good conversation and a fun time. More than likely I'll have whiskey. Just as likely I'll have my vape and some bud.
