I am a 23 year old student, and lecturer in Anatomy, at Stellenbosch University, in South Africa. I grew up in Johannesburg, and have a twin brother. I am extensively involved with leadership and also volunteerism. I have been to seven international medical missions with the international organisation Operation Smile, assisting in performing reconstructive surgery for those who need it most but are not able to get the treatment done. I am very outgoing, love meeting new people, and I am always interested in a new adventure.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am looking to find cheap accommodation when I travel and love meeting local people. Nothing is better than learning from those who live in the country.

Interests

I am interested in traveling, reading, and really having a great time. I am a volunteer with Operation Smile and therefore love helping others.
