I am a 22 year old postgraduate student in theatre and acting. In 2019 I'll be sharing a lovely apartment with my best friend in the heart of Stellenbosch. I'm an absolute lover of the earth, people, mindful moments, stories and time spent at the ocean.
I'd like to think of myself as an easy going type of person. I'm in my happy place at the beach surrounded with friends and Gin and Tonics. Basically in nature is where I'm in my element, either doing a hiking trail, working in the garden, growing herbs, bathing in sunshine or just having a picnic in the mountains.
I can cook, chat, entertain and willing to constantly learn, about myself and those around me. I'm trying to live a more sustainable life - less plastic, more happy sea turtles and animals (hate plastic straws and plastic bags).
I strive to be the human form of my Dachshund (and best friend) Amy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe humans are made to give and to love, unconditionally. There is something beautiful about people coming together to celebrate life and each other. I'd love to host people and treat them like family, creating moments filled with laughter and contentment.
Staying with locals is one of the best ways to get familiar with a new place and culture.
I'm excited to meet new people and different cultures who will help me grow and to look at the world with new eyes.
