Overview
About Me
Born in South Africa, grew up in the states, and also an Irish citizen (though this will be my first visit there).
Digital nomad heading to Europe next. I’ve been to 19 countries so far and hope to keep adding to the list.
Passions include travel, dancing (not well), thrifting, embroidery, brunching, and concerts/festivals.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I travel quite often, but prefer couch surfing/AirBnBing rather than hotels to get the full experience of a place. Nonprofit work is rewarding but doesn't pay enough to cover accommodations for everywhere I travel.
Interests
I value spontaneity, meeting new people, exploring the nooks and hidden gems of a city, and any kind of performance art (musicals, concerts, etc).
