About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I don't know, see things!?

ABOUT ME

I thinks.. I like people... I want to have experiences and enjoy life...

SIMPLE!

PHILOSOPHY

The measure of one's life is the quality of stories one has...

After you have finished freaking out about it, just do it!
Else, and here's the worst part, it won't get done!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Ummm, I like meeting people who are like minded and enjoy experiencing the world out there... I heard a great saying this morning, Leap and the net will appear. I think that's true...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

GREAT!
Couched: Spain/Amsterdam/France
Hosted: CapeTown/London

Met some supercool folks I would have otherwise never have met...

Interests

So extensive...
I can probably go on about the outdoors, baby hamsters and sunsets.
But all this poetic drivel all comes back to really enjoying and experiencing life... I'm that guy who walks into a room and starts a conversation.

I am happy walking the beautiful beaches in Coffee Bay, Transkei, on my own – sharing the moment with the birds.
And, equally, I am happy being wedged in a funfare with a group of friends sharing candy-floss and beer, listening to squealing girls on rides.

Music, Movies, and Books

Anything.. Less so on the ghetto rap... I'm a White South African guy, who understands and appreciates very little about kicking it back with a bottle of crystal in the right an a 9mm in the left.. Not my vibe!

But I appreciate it exists ; )

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Wow... So many.

I have driven to Namibia and made sweet passionate love overlooking the Fish River Canyon.

I have journeyed to the Transkei on my own and met the most beautiful people, with whom, I shared many drinks and some smoke. And enjoyed the wild living, where the winds tickle your heart muscles.

A recent journey took me to Spain where I eventually met up some Spanish friends for a wedding. Although, I couldn't speak the language and knew very little about Spain, I was able to travel through the whole of Spain and meet really special people. Where an older woman, just helping me get to my destination on a bus, or have a fat party at a hostel and then ran out to a Tapas bar at all hours of the night... What a trip.

Paris: The Mona Lisa, the Louvre, eating a Crepe outside Notre Dam...

I have seen and done a whole bunch of things... Most, I'm proud of. I'm always game of stories.

Teach, Learn, Share

You know... No two people are alike, so I feel very strongly about getting a glimpse into other people's journey.

I'd also love to share about mine. Whether it's learning about love, life, politics, stupidity, fun, or stories.

I want to hear it all... Don't you?
