CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy and understand the journey

ABOUT ME

I will give a little of my history first, grew up in a small village town that I love, called Irene, where I met most of the people who I am still friends with today. I played every sport under the sun and still love playing sport today. I then went to Pretoria Boys High School, which was great, during that time (i was 17) I was also an exchange student in Sweden, this is where I fell in love with travelling. After that I returned to SA and finished High School, I then started studying at Uni. After my ssecond year I moved to Orange County in California for a year, this was probably the best year of my life. I returned home after a year to complete my studies. I also back packed through South America at this time. I am now finished with my post graduate degree and I was going to work in Dubai, but due to the economic situation this is not possible now. So I have decided to travel again.

I just finished my around the world trip and loved couchsurfing. I am now living in Brisbane and I would like to give back.
