ABOUT ME

I love the beauty that this world beholds and am truly grateful for the experiences I have had.

My passion is to explore our environment whether its under the ocean diving, above it surfing the waves, on land hiking through the mountains or in the air sky diving and to meet some good hearted people and have a laugh along the way.

If one is to travel to Bolivia; please contact me as I know of a great organisation if your interested in volunteering your time.

PHILOSOPHY

This continuously changes as we go through different stages in our lives. What suits me now, not sure trying to figure that out.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I use couch surfing as a way to meet people who are like minded :)

Since changing from a non for profit organisation to a corporate company, couch surfing inst as good as it use to be.
However it did provide me with the opportunity to meet some wonderful people in my travels. Something I will hold onto for ever.

Interests

Listening to new musical beats from different countries and trying to learn how to play them on my guitar.... trying being the operative word.
