I am a 30 year old Canadian currently backpacking in South Africa. I am easy going and love exploring new places (especially nature) and meeting new people. I enjoy good movies, conversations and food. I am very tidy and good at keeping my stuff organized in a small space. One of my strengths is matching the energy of who I am around - so I can be as quiet or as outgoing as you want. Also, I love animals, so if you have pets, that's a bonus for me!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing to meet new/local people, experience new places and cultures, and to share experiences and conversations. I am also here to have a good time, as well as spend some of my time helping out around the house, etc... in exchange for your generosity.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a very broad musical taste, I can appreciate most music. Recently I have been listening to "folk" music from Across Africa as well as flamenco guitar.
I love lots of movies, so can't list them all, but Lord of the Rings are some of my favorites.
Books on Mythology, philosophy, psychoanalysis, religion, so mostly non fiction.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my positive and fun personality, and good conversation, and am always willing to help and learn. I like to cook, so that is another thing. And I am always a very respectful guest.
