Overview
About Me
I am an artist and information designer traveling for the next couple months. I quit my job and am off on adventure picking up a bit of freelance work along the way to sustain my travels. I love the outdoors, experiencing new food and cultures and exploring different ways of living and learning around the world.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I would love to learn other peoples ways of living. Get to experience local culture and stay away from tourists traps. I am also travelling on a very tight budget so am very grateful for a bed to sleep on.

Music, Movies, and Books
I love all kinds of music, depending on the mood. Adventure, romance, art and detective books. And love a good rom com.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I love nature conservation, I did a fundraiser for a rhino conservation organisation in my home country, South Africa. It was a wilderness walk through a big 5 game reserve, camping out in the open for 5 nights, cooking food on the fire and carrying everything we needed on our backs.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love art and design so could definitely share and teach my skills there. I also love cooking but would love to learn your favourite recipes and I’ll share a few of my culinary secrets!
What I Can Share with Hosts
Some really tasty South African recipes and music. Some good banter and lots of travel stories.
