About Me

A big, friendly Zimbabwean who's always open to meeting new people, sharing interesting stories, and learning about different cultures and countries.

Some of the things I love to do are read, work on my craft projects, cook, listen to music, dance and play Ultimate Frisbee.

Life motto: If you can walk you can dance, if you can talk you can sing - Shona proverb

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to meet people that have new ideas and interesting stories to share.

When I travel I like to find out about a place through locals not a pre-packaged tourist experience:)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2015 I canoed down the Zambezi River for 5 nights, camping on islands, dodging crocodiles, fishing and soaking up the sun.

When you're sitting on an island with close friends, a warm meal in your belly, surrounded by the symphony of the sounds of the bush, under the faint light of a clear star-lit night, then you come to appreciate what is important in life.

I would do it again tomorrow!
