Hi I am Carla and currently studying Architecture in Cape Town. I moved to Cape Town and come from a much smaller town. I have a brother and my mom and dad that I truly love with all my heart. I believe that life is like learning to fly. You can take the leap, but then you would have to believe you will be able to fly. Embrace and enjoy the little things in life.

I love bright colors and also anything that is turquoise . I have a collection of ribbons and headbands and can never stop not to buy more. I over-think and over-plan and over-organize.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel. I want to learn about new places, experience new people, get a taste of different food. I want to embrace life and live life it to the fullest. The reason why I'm on Couchsurfing is because I will be travelling to Europe in June, visiting my brother who is living in England for a year. I want to meet new people, hear about their stories and visit places I have never seen before.
Still new at this, really want to surf when I am travelling Europe!

Interests

I love dancing, signing, playing guitar, going on road trips, ice skating, drawing, painting, taking my dog for a walk, baking or actually taking a cookbook and closing my eyes while opening it to a random page, then attempting to make that recipe
I am generally excited by anything that falls into 'cute' and 'cozy' categories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

Why would you be the same if you can stand out. I love staring at chandeliers and old buildings whose paint is chipping off and I truly believe you should experience things like this to make life just more brighter and alive.
"Trust in God with all your heart"_Proverbs 3:5

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share laughter, long stories, nice music and good vibes. I love road trips so be sure to enjoy the heart of Cape Town and get a taste of South African vibes
