Having been raised in the Dark continent I am still learning how 1st world countries operate.

For example:

I first took public transport aka a bus and train in Australia at 22 years old

Im still learning how to fill up a car by myself or pay for my own food using one of those self service machines

How can a building be more than a hundred years old and why does everyone always wear shoes haha??

Otherwise Im not all that different haha..

Not having much of choice at 19 years old, my dad - in an attempt to get some peace and quite - sent me to Kenya to live with my mysterious uncle and a packof primitive bushpilots for a couple of months. Having been mildy influenced I decided to tear up my plane ticket - much to my mothers despair - and hitchike/backpack down to South Africa..how I survived that trip I still dont know haha...

Since then I have always had a deep and insatiable desire to see and experience the world. There is more to life than sitting behind a desk in an office.

If you ever want to meet up or just have a beer drop me a message I would love to meet you and share some stories with you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet like minded people, travelling can burn a whole in your wallet, also its not always possible to pitch a tent or hang a hammock on the pavement haha...
