About Me

Working in a small hospital in the small town of Manguzi which is 15minute drive from the border of Mozambique and South Africa.

I think there is this yearning in every human soul to travel, too see more of this incredible world made for us, and I am eager to satisfy that longing. Travel for me is summed up in these two things: the connections I make with people and good food.

I enjoy meeting new people, getting know and appreciate different cultures, thought processes, ideologies people tend to have due to the sheer diversity of upbringing, beliefs and so forth. One thing I have found to be true is that no matter where in the world you are from, you will always find a common connection with someone! The human spirit is stunning in that even with all the differences and diversity, we are all connected in the circle of life! #MufasaWisdom #LionKingIsLife

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As we say in our culture "Umuntu ungumunti ngabantu", meaning a human being is a human being through the help of other human beings. We believe in the universal bond created in sharing the little (or much) you have with others, and that in that you build up humanity.
A human(commu)nity.

Its an incredible way of building an international human community, an unconventional family. A great conduit for incredible souls to meet and to share the human experience (good food most definitely included).

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music, as long as it is good! Whether old or new, well known or not.
My taste in movies is like my taste in music- very eclectic. Old school Humphrey Bogart to anything Marvel/DC to classic romantic comedies to animations... and so forth.

I LOVE BOOKS!

Reading is a favourite past time. As my taste in music and movies is eclectic so it is with books, from JRR Tolkien to John Green, to CS Lewis, to stand alone's- a favourite right now is Into The Wild!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking the Alps (mid-winter) in my Nikes and walking the snow covered streets of Munich in my Converse sneakers (mind you I am the girl who walks through life in sunny South Africa, barefoot). Grateful I still have my toes. All ten of them.

Teach, Learn, Share

It doesn't interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing.
It doesn't interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dream, for the adventure of being alive. -Oriah Mountain Dreamer
