CURRENT MISSION

On a mission 101 to Discover the beauties of the world.

ABOUT ME

Friendly, keen for adventure and a student who loves art. I love to look for the small detail in life, and enjoy life to the fullest every moment I can. The trip I'm on at the moment is by far some of the best experiences of my life. I cannot stop soaking in what is around me! It's fantastic. I can't wait to meet more people along the way and see things I've never seen before.

PHILOSOPHY

"Happiness is only real when shared"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couch surfing has enabled me to experience cities through locals perspectives. After my travels, once I have settled in South Africa I will return the favour to many other tourists visiting South Africa.
