Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To break down the walls between people by being the very first to live my life 100% authentically, completely open and live 24/7/365 on 11 different social media networks...
ABOUT ME
Who on EARTH thinks up these description boxes?! How can we possibly encapsulate ourselves in 200 words?! Ok...ok...I am HIGHLY efficient and organised, honest, noble, quick to defend the weak, opinionated, loud, self-assured, boisterous, loquacious, well-travelled, worldly-wise, reliable, a GREAT friend, outgoing, friendly, emotion-centred, creative to the point of bursting, expressive, fussy about cleanliness, a snorer and I love chocolate! How's that?! [...or find me on FACEBOOK by mousing to (http://www.facebook.com/jamescapetown)
PHILOSOPHY
"Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds' - A EINSTEIN

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I would like to share all my reviews, listed on (http://www.facebook.com/jamescapetown) or [@jamescapetown on Twitter], on everything from hotels, lodges, restaurants, banks, party spots, cab companies, travel tips for Cape Town (& all the way up to Port St Johns) with the community here for free. It is all under NOTES on my Page. Further - if anybody needs ANYTHING...from information on travel tips to a shoulder to cry on; then please feel free to connect! Or just shoot the breeze....!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have hosted quite a number of folks here in Cape Town; and have even couchsurfed here in when I was between apartments last year after I was in a private psychiatric hospital for 3 weeks with a post-traumatic stress breakdown. I have only ever met fabulous humans who are open, gracious, soulful, spontaneous, intelligent and ever so much FUN!
