CURRENT MISSION Meet amazing people from all corners of the world, and soak up as many stories & experience as possible! ABOUT ME Hi everyone! I joined CS in 2010 when I moved to Cape Town, South Africa. I've just moved to Taipei in April 2015, and will love to connect with the local CS community! What you should know about me: I am outgoing and friendly, and my infectious energy can be overwhelming for the new people I meet - because they are always surprised at how open and warm I am. I live life to the fullest, and I want to look back when I am 50+ and know that I had no (well, virtually none) regrets. I looove traveling, it's a passion and a lifestyle I can't imagine not having. During my "free" times, you will find me checking out new neighborhoods in the city I live in, enjoying free concerts / cultural events / festivals, and just having a great time overall. I look forward to exploring Taiwan and make some new friends And to meet other CSers when I get a chance to travel~ PHILOSOPHY Own only what you can carry with you; know language, know countries, know people. Let your memory be your travel bag. - Alexander Solzhenitsyn

Perché sono su Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I have been very fortunate to meet the most kind, loving CSers here in Cape Town - even more incredible to have them as some of my best friends!! I am a Cape Town CS moderator: http://www.couchsurfing.org/group.html?gid=1425, we constantly post up get togethers/braais/ sundowners at the beach, or just exploring activities around the city. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I have couchsurfed during my travels in Asia, South America, and South Africa. This includes staying over with friends' friends, or through new people I meet in the city during my travels. I truly enjoy hearing people's life stories, because I grow so much through seeing from different perspectives~ Hosted Couchsurfers from: * United States * Romania * Philippines * South Africa * Germany * Canada * Wales * South Korea * Ireland * India * Peru * Zimbabwe Surfed in: * United States * South Africa
Una cosa straordinaria che ho fatto
I backpacked solo in South Africa, from Cape Town up the Garden route to Port Elizabeth. Making an impromptu in a seaside city called Knysna, I found Sista Keri - a Rasta women who transformed her home into an "alternative BnB". I spent 3 nights in her home in Judah Square, a Rasta community that's also a rural township. Playing football, dancing to Kwela with the locals and stargazing... it was an incredible experience, and humbling to learn from the community elders!
