Hi there,

My names Joel , I'm a South African from the city of Durban( its a great place!)

Currently working in Durban , South Africa and planning my first trip to Thailand currently, really looking forward to that!

Im here to meet some new people from around the world that can given me some sort of insight to their lives , cultures and thoughts!

Also planning on taking some years off to travel soon and would love to hear from those who've done it before!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've traveled parts of South Africa pretty well and really love my country!
I lived with foreign students at university and I learnt so much from them that I would love to meet some more! I also am planning on doing some traveling of my own and would loved to hear experiences and stories of new places!
