Originally from Durban, I have been living, studying and working in Cape Town for the last five years. I recently decided to quit my job and head out into the big, wide world to travel and take in as many experiences as I can. Currently traveling around South America. Pros of being around me: My friends say I laugh very easily so I'll be a great audience for all your jokes. Cons of being around me: My laugh is very loud... I am extremely easy going and am always up to trying new things. I love exploring cities by foot, a good night out, live music, cosy cafes, trying new food (correction: ALL food) and a good book. (P.S. I can make a great fire and a good cup of tea).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The best way to explore a new city is to stay with locals, wander around on foot or hop on a bike - Couchsurfing allows you to do just this. I also believe that people make your travel experience, it doesn't matter where you are. Here's to meeting new friends!
