Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Enjoying life in Stellenbosch, discovering one wine estate at the time, working on my Masters degree and eating too much cheese cake.
ABOUT ME
I moved to Stellenbosch a few months ago to attend university. I´m doing a Masters of Education and will hopefully be able to combine my love for travel, desire for social justice and educational background one day.
I lived in Vietnam for over two years and taught English, worked in different kindergartens and in an Australian NGO caring for street children and kids with dysfunctional family backgrounds. I really enjoyed having the chance to combine my desire to travel with my passion, working with children. I love discovering new cultures, try local food and meets new people. Traveling and eating are most likely my two biggest passions :)
PHILOSOPHY
Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.
- Dalai Lama
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I meet some really cool people trough CS and had the chance to show my second home Hanoi to fellow travelers. I´m really blessed to found out about this website through a good friend of mine and made lots of great memories in Cambodia, Thailand, Vietnam, Austria, Slovakia and the US. I love meeting new people, chatting about random travel or life experiences and trying local treats, food and drinks :)
Interests
I love to travel like probably most people here :) I would love to discover more parts of Europe and finally get to see Scandinavia and Southern Spain. I like hanging out with friends, just chatting, playing board games and drinking wine. There is a cinema called Labia in Cape Town which I just adore and there is lots of nature close by which is great for hiking and exploring
