CURRENT MISSION

To see as much that's different as possible. Which I imagine is the case for most of you.

ABOUT ME

I grew up between a small town in South Africa and the Philippines, which has been pretty fun - and now I'm in a relatively big town in South Africa, doing the whole university thing.
I've been delighted by the sorts of people I've me through CS. I should be delighted to meet you, too.

Also, I am awful at 'about you' segments. There, now you know something about me.

PHILOSOPHY

Make good art.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd be happy to offer a couch and some local insight when I'm back in Cape Town - for the moment I'm traveling, so participation seems limited to surfing, rather than hosting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Some wonderful weeks traveling through Boston, Washington, and New York.

Interests

Books. People. Stories. Travel.

I also like whiskey.
