Overview
About Me
Hey, I am a South African adventure guide traveling the USA after working a summer as a climbing guide for a summer camp.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm surfing in order to travel as much as I can around the wonderful US and to experience all the people have to offer.
Interests
I love anything to do with a good day in the mountains be it climbing, hiking or canyoneering, and I'm excited to see what Washington state has to offer, I especially enjoy longer overnight backpacking trips. I do have all of my own hiking gear as well as my harness, belay devices, and climbing shoes.
I can offer any climbing hosts a good belay and stories of crags back home and maybe a trick or two in exchange for some climbing.
I think my interest in good food and good conversation stem from the idea that the best way to experience a new place is to explore its food along with the stories of those making it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I recently summited Mount Baker and the sunrise over the glacier was unbeatable.
Teach, Learn, Share
I am an avid rock climber and I'm always keen to share some skills when it comes to safety on rock. I would also like to learn how to cook difference meals from other cultures.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can offer good stories and a keen ear for your stories. I'm always eager to offer a hand in any small jobs in order to say thank you for my stay.
