I'm a forever student who will spend all my savings on travelling, good food and new experiences. Thus far, I have mastered the art of procrastination and I always find myself keen for long interesting conversations with others. In my free time, I enjoy the listening to podcasts, watching travel vlogs and goofing around with my husband. Bread and pasta is life. Mostly, I'm always keen on learning new things and embarking on spontaneous adventures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am currently travelling through SoutheastAsia with my husband. The few Couchsurfing experiences I had thus far taught me so much about the incredible power of hospitality and kindness towards others.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One year I made a new years resolution and actually did it- but most of the time I'm just winging things, to be honest.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about philosophy, languages, feminism and memorising techniques. I can also share some epic stories, lame puns or even just a good home-made Croque-monsieur.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Thrive on sharing ideas with others, having critical conversations and talking a little bit of nonsense in between ;)
Always be willing to help out domestically. Will also be happy to make some South African food or even teaching you some Afrikaans.
