Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like meeting (and when time allows) hosting travelling types...they have to make it past the usual barriers to travel, bring different perspectives and have interesting stories to relate. I travel a lot in South Africa and can give advice on road trips and places less traveled.

Last but not least, I am fortunate enough to know South Africa fairly well (in some ways it is a world in one country and so a hundred lifetimes is not enough to appreciate it), I will share advice on where to go and what to experience.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted some intern students/ student surfers for longer periods and involved some with environmental work.

Lots of drinks in South America with CSers...and hangovers too!
