About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Just enjoy life and whatever it brings my way :)

ABOUT ME

I am a South African living in Johannesburg, the work city of the country. I work as a play school teacher and aupair during the day. I am a big animal lover. I have two cats who i adore to bits and pieces. I can be rather crazy at times and at other times a bit serious, but I'm always willing to have fun and meet new people. I want to travel the world and see all of the beautiful places it has to offer. Doing so not as a tourist but rather making a life for myself there for a while.

PHILOSOPHY

A journey of a thousand miles (or in my case kilometers :P ) starts with a single step!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to couch surf and meet new people, and be taught all of the many different cultures as well as languages of the world. I am also willing to let my couch out and teach anyone about my country.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to this :)

Interests

I love animals and photography. I will have my camera glued to my side throughout any holiday. One of my all time favorite holidays is to the Kruger Park in Mpumalanga South Africa. I also enjoy reading and anything creative.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been touring through Botswana and Zimbabwe for two weeks at a time moving from one place to the next. There i saw the great baobab trees in the salt plains and witnessed a lion kill on the main highway through Botswana. I have snowboarded in Andorra, Zermatt and La Plagne and loved each second of it!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to teach you about my culture and my country and the languages I know. I would love to be taught in return about your country and the knowledge you possess.
