An easy going guy who loves the outdoors and has a preference for both oceans and the mountains. Creativity is my passion and archaeology and natural spaces is my ongoing drive. I am currently doing my honors in Archaeology. I love hiking and when the weather is right I'll hit the waves. I try to keep my friends circle varied and in constant flow, so that I always get to meet new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like meeting up with new people, and engaging in interesting conversations. I also want to make world wide connections and have an ever lasting legacy on this earth.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted 2 individuals when I was living in Bali from 2010 to 2012. Both were awesome people whom I got to learn a lot from. In 2016, I backpacked in South America for 3 months and was able to stay with 2 surfers who created rather memorable experiences.

Now that I am back in South Africa, I want to meet up with more people and hear their stories and experiences.

Interests

Hiking, is what I do when I have free time on weekends.

Drawing and reading books. I do abstract drawings, and I am guided by my hand and it just flows.

Road trips. I enjoy road tripping and weekends away.
