Please read the whole Profile before you proceed to contact me. This forum is not tinder or Badoo or any dating site and I am not interested to know anyone to find a partner here. I do not stay with Male hosts! No we cannot host each other if you live in the same city just because you want to know me. I host serious travelers.

I am quirky, anyone who meets me knows that. I love interacting with new people to learn more about their culture and then I become quite a chatterbox. I am very innovative, even resourceful. I live with my sister and two cats. I love to read and when I have the time, watch movies. I am an artist (self proclaimed). I love make up and if I am not out browsing for trinkets in the tiniest shops around, I will do it online. Big time seafood lover and I think Ocean basket should be a worldwide thing! I love learning about other cultures in general. I love watching sports- football, tennis, rugby, cricket, hockey, water polo and if given a chance I will also gladly play a game. I cook! If the mood arises as my work is stressful and I don't usually get the time. I will gladly cook for my guests though and share some African and Asian cooking. I can be feminine but extremely pushy when an idea gets into my head and that is when I won't stop till my goal is achieved. I play the djembe (West African drum) hoard books, trinkets (fashion), dresses and shoes like a typical woman but I can even rough it out if necessary. I'm a coffee drinker every once in a while and I really hate tea but my time in Qatar made me fall in love with Karak. Paella in Spain, Helwa Tet tort and pastizzi in Malta, camel livers in Libya, the best kunafeh in the world from Jordan and suflaqe in Albania, Iraqi hummus being the best in the world.I can't call myself a fussy eater anymore. Traveling does that to you. I cannot play the piano but I love classical music concerts even contemporary classical (Yanni). I travel to de-stress and explore new cultures. South Africa has my heart. My family and cats mean a lot to me.
