Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To increase the number of times I can say that I really lived.
ABOUT ME
Wow! I haven't updated my couchsurfing profile in nearly 10 years. Kind of like a blast from the past. I am not in South Africa and have lived in several places since I wrote this about me. Now I am on Vancouver Island, looking to get know the area.
PHILOSOPHY
hmm Carpe diem (used a lot), to be me... wait i know "don't worry, or know that worrying is as effective of trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum."

Music, Movies, and Books
African literature is the main genre that I consume, but I recently joined a bookclub and have read Miriam Toews Fight Night and Gabriela Garcia's Of Women and Salt.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
